Culture, Heritage and Leisure Culture, Heritage and Leisure relates to the symbolic and learned aspects of human society and includes topics such as social norms, accepted behaviours and customs. The importance of cultural heritage to an individual's wellbeing has been acknowledged in various reports.

Family, Kinship and Community Statistics Family, Kinship and Community relates to aspects of the relationships people have with others; be they family, cultural group, or community members. These relationships play an important role in the lives of many Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people as they provide a three-tier social network system; one that may overlap but still retain individual boundaries. In general, community relationships play a large role in the lives of many Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people as there is a great emphasis on having connections with other people.
