Indigenous Australians are less likely to use health services than non-Indigenous people – even when needed. So health services need to change.
The Kids Research Institute
At The Kids Research Institute Australia our vision is simple – happy healthy KIDS.
Our purpose is to find solutions to improve the health and happiness of children and young people everywhere.
Our new 10-year Strategic Plan, RESEARCH REIMAGINED, sets out our vision for even greater impact.
A key driver in the plan is that we not only do research, but as an organisation we take responsibility for supporting our research to deliver impactful outcomes.
