Everyone wants to be healthy. At Deakin, we strive to ensure health and wellbeing for all, regardless of life stage or location in the world.

Our research is multidisciplinary and collaborative. We understand that achieving health equity calls for a whole-of-society response. That’s why we work with governments, actively informing and evaluating policy and practice and with communities, implementing evidence-based interventions to create transformational improvements in health and wellbeing.
