Abstract: Cross-cultural training in its various forms has been around in Australia since the 1980s. It has primarily been viewed as a way of improving knowledge and understanding of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and a means to improving service delivery (Fredericks in Contemp Nurse 23:87–99, 2006, Aust J Indigenous Educ 37S:81–89, 2008; Fredericks & Bargallie in Int J Crit Indigenous Stud 9:1–14, 2016). This led to government departments that serviced Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples recognised as leaders in this arena, closely followed by other agencies who offered services.
