91É«Ç鯬

At 91É«Ç鯬 Medicine & Health, our work is guided by our Faculty strategy, Better, equitable health for all, and the University’s strategy, 91É«Ç鯬 Strategy: Progress for All.

Together, these strategies reflect a shared commitment to improving health and wellbeing for all people, and to delivering meaningful, real world impact through education, research and partnerships.

Progress for All places collective progress at the centre of 91É«ÇéÆ¬â€™s purpose, bringing together education, research and engagement to advance public good and address the challenges facing communities locally and globally.

Within this, 91É«Ç鯬 Medicine & Health contributes by advancing equitable health outcomes, preparing future ready graduates, and working in partnership with communities and health systems to improve care and wellbeing.

Our Faculty strategy builds on this by focusing on people and culture, education, research and engagement, with a strong emphasis on equity and collaboration across all that we do. We are committed to inclusive practice and to working in partnership with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, embedding First Peoples ways of knowing, being and doing across our work.
