HPV rarely produces symptoms and cannot be cured or treated; therefore, vaccination is essential to protect against HPV and HPV-related diseases. However, young Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander (hereafter, respectfully, \u2018Aboriginal\u2019) people are not receiving their HPV vaccine dose, resulting in missed opportunities to be protected from HPV-related cancers. Health promotion is a critical way to empower people to take ownership over and control their health and is a core function of public health. One way to deliver health promotion is through social media platforms. In recent COVID-19 times, we have seen the effect of social media on public health messaging, both positive and harmful. In particular, Instagram influencers have had a profound impact on pro- and anti-vaccination messages. Aboriginal adolescents aged 13-15 years old have strong engagement with social media platforms. Combining co-created health promotion messages with local \u2018micro-Influencers\u2019 is a novel way to improve HPV vaccination rates. The overall aim of this project is to improve the rates of HPV vaccination amongst young Aboriginal people. We will achieve this through: i) co-creation of health promotion messages, ii) developing and delivering a social media campaign and iii) evaluating the effectiveness of the campaign through an interrupted time-series design. We hypothesise that the co-creation of health promotion messages with young Aboriginal people and their families and utilising the skills of micro-Influencers to engage and influence their followers will result in improvements HPV vaccination rates amongst this population.<\/ns3:p>","DOI":"10.12688\/f1000research.168930.1","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,11,20]],"date-time":"2025-11-20T18:30:07Z","timestamp":1763663407000},"page":"1162","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.12688\/f1000research.crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["IMPROVING HPV VACCINE RATES FOR ABORIGINAL YOUNG PEOPLE THROUGH A SOCIAL MEDIA CAMPAIGN: AN INTERRUPTED TIME SERIES"],"prefix":"10.12688","volume":"14","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2962-5704","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Natalie A.","family":"Strobel","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Kurongkurl Katitjin Mount Lawley Western Australia Edith Cowan University"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jocelyn","family":"Jones","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Kurongkurl Katitjin Mount Lawley Western Australia Edith Cowan University"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0006-1535-3951","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kim","family":"Gates","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Highgate Western Australia Aboriginal Health Council of Western Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Simon L.","family":"Turner","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Methods in Evidence Synthesis Melbourne Victoria Monash University School of Public Health and Preventive Medicine"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3534-1641","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Joanne E.","family":"McKenzie","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Methods in Evidence Synthesis Melbourne Victoria Monash University School of Public Health and Preventive Medicine"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0651-899X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Daniel R.","family":"McAullay","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Kurongkurl Katitjin Mount Lawley Western Australia Edith Cowan University"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"2560","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,10,24]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","article-title":"Fact sheet.
