Welcome from the Dean

91É«Ç鯬ÌýMedicine & Health is committed to thinking bigger and bolder to tackle the world’s toughest health challenges. 

We’re on a mission to progress the health and well-being of all people. Because a healthier world is one more empowered to make thoughtful choices for ourselves, future generations and the environments we share. 

We’re living and working in a period of extraordinary change. So, as we navigate a future shaped by transformative technologies like AI and an urgent need for sustainability, we must think big and be bold. For all people. 

As the Faculty of Medicine & Health, people look to us to help change the future. And as challenges grow, so does our responsibility to innovate, to be a trusted source of new knowledge, to refute misinformation and to prepare future-ready graduates. 

Our Better,ÌýequitableÌýhealth forÌýall strategyÌýsets us up to become just that. It’s a shared vision that’s been informed by many of you through deep listening and collaboration. It’s designed to help us work together more seamlessly within our wonderful faculty, across the university in our state-of-the-art health precincts and with our Greater Sydney, rural and global partners. The strategy will help foster deep and genuine partnerships with First Peoples so that together we can embed First Peoples ways of knowing, being and doing into everything we do. 

Our strategy is also a call to be courageous. To iterate boldly and learn quickly. To come to work every day with curiosity, enthusiasm and purpose. To deeply understand the limitations and opportunities of technology at our fingertips. To aim not just for progress, but for transformation. 

Ìý

Now’s the time to do what we came here to do: make a real and lasting positive difference in the world.
