MCRI’s Global Health Strategic Initiative is part of a global effort to place children and adolescents at the centre of sustainable development and the United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Our approach to sustainable development is enabled by the co-location of research, education and care at the Melbourne Children’s, which promotes learning within health systems to improve child and adolescent health. Our Global Health Strategic Initiative has global reach, with implementation focused in the Indo-Pacific region. We collaborate with the World Health Organization, governments in the Indo-Pacific, research institutes, universities, health care services and non-government organisations.
