The OID report measures the wellbeing of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians, and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians have been actively involved in the development and production of the report. Section 1.1 describes the origins of the report, and section 1.2 describes its key objectives. Section 1.3 provides contextual information on the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population. Section 1.4 includes a brief historical narrative to help put the information in the report into context. Section 1.5 summarises some recent developments in government policy that have influenced the report and section 1.6 provides further information on the Steering Committee and the OID Working Group that advises it.
"These reports generally uses the term ‘Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians’ to describe Australia’s first peoples and ‘non-Indigenous Australians’ to refer to Australians of other backgrounds, except where quoting other sources." Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people should be aware that this publication may contain images of deceased people.

Estimated life expectancies at birth, NSW, Queensland, WA, NT and Australia, 20102012 (years) (a) Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander estimates of life expectancy are not produced for Victoria, SA, Tasmania or the ACT due to the small number of Indigenous deaths reported in these jurisdictions. These estimates are not the headline estimates for Australia, because they are calculated without an age-adjustment, but are provided to enable effective comparison with the State and Territory, and remoteness area estimates. Australian total includes all states and territories. Headline estimates for Australia are calculated using an improved methodology (taking into account age specific identification rates) that could not be applied at the State and Territory or remoteness area levels. Therefore this data should not be compared with data for any state or territory, or remoteness area. Gaps are based on unrounded estimates.
