Public Health and Health Systems
Our research and evaluation work has impact through the development of evidence to inform ongoing improvement of health services, systems and solutions in partnership with communities, practitioners, policy makers and other researchers.
The Public Health & Health Systems group is an interdisciplinary group of researchers united by a focus on research and evaluation that builds capacity for health promotion, health protection, disease prevention and health service improvement.
Our research and evaluation work is solution-focused, place-based, capacity-building, translational, pragmatic and collaborative. Our group has a particular focus on health interventions, services and systems that provide upstream primary and secondary prevention and promote health and wellbeing.
