24.01.2022 How can we improve the health and wellbeing of Australians over the next decade? We have a unique opportunity to build back better post-pandemic but it requires bold and effective leadership. MSDI Director, Professor Tony Capon and Senior Research Fellow, Dr Selina Lo have recently contributed to the Medical Journal of Australia and VicHealth supplement "Australia in 2030: what is our path to health for all?"... The supplement explores some of the critical opportunities that we need to focus on now, to improve the health and wellbeing of all Australians over the coming decade. It outlines a bold vision for the future of health and health promotion in Australia. A vision that will be vital for a healthy, equitable and prosperous Australia in the decade to come. https://lght.ly/o5nbi68
