An evaluation and refnement of the “Hep B Story” app, tailored to meet the community’s cultural needs

Hepatitis B is endemic amongst the Australian Aboriginal population in the Northern Territory. A participatory action research project identified the lack of culturally appropriate education tools and led to the development of the “Hep B Story” app in the Aboriginal language Yolŋu Matha. This paper describes a formal evaluation of the app’s frst version, which informed improvements and translation into a further ten Aboriginal languages.
