Expressions of interest are being called for the Māori, Aboriginal, and Torres Strait Islander Executive Committee

RANZCR is seeking expressions of interest from Māori, Aboriginal, and Torres Strait Islanders members and trainees to join RANZCR’s Māori, Aboriginal, and Torres Strait Islander Executive Committee (MATEC).
 
The MATEC is a high-level bi-national committee reporting to the Faculties of Clinical Radiology and Radiation Oncology Councils jointly. Its goal is to support the professions of clinical radiology and radiation oncology in delivering more equitable health outcomes for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders and Māori people. This objective is achieved by maintaining a clear governance and accountability framework, underpinned by justice and fairness in line with the Māori, Aboriginal, and Torres Strait Islander Action Plan, with expert Indigenous voices at its core.
 
MATEC facilitates RANZCR members in providing culturally competent and safe practice. It emphasises the importance of making an effective and long-term difference to Indigenous health outcomes. Additionally, the committee aims to grow and support the Indigenous clinical radiology and radiation oncology workforce, while ensuring compliance with the Australian Medical Council’s (AMC) and Medical Council of New Zealand’s (MCNZ) accreditation standards.
 
Commitment
  • MATEC meets two-three times per year (either via video conference or face-to-face).
  • Additional time is required for policy development and contributing to MATEC projects.
