Abstract

Summary The role of culture in palliative care for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples builds on over 60 000 years of history and includes meaningful practices to support a good “finishing up”.The Gwandalan National Palliative Care Project aims to build capacity in those who deliver palliative care to embed culturally responsive care in all end‐of‐life settings.Community consultation, value co‐creation and user‐centred design ensured that diverse Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander perspectives informed the Gwandalan curriculum.Emerging communities of practice serve as yarning circles where barriers to and enablers of service delivery can be shared and addressed collaboratively.
