Strategic plan for health research
Research across the ACT’s health ecosystem is guided by Better together: A strategic plan for research in the ACT health system.
This strategic plan was developed collaboratively by key partners across the ecosystem. It supports strategic prioritisation and integration of efforts to build and nurture research in the ACT’s health system.
The plan was overseen by the ACT Health System Council.
