The Discipline of Public Health is part of the School of Health Sciences, in the Faculty of Medicine, Nursing & Health Sciences at Flinders University. We aim to promote health and healthy environments in Australia and overseas by advocating for and advancing multi-disciplinary public health research, teaching and practice.
We are committed to local and global action to address the social factors leading to ill health and health inequities. We aim to play our part in drawing the attention of society to the social determinants of health that are known to be among the worst causes of poor health and inequalities between and within countries. The determinants include unemployment, unsafe workplaces, urban slums, globalization and lack of access to health systems.
