Priority-setting in child population health: increasing the effectiveness of population health resources to improve health and quality of life of Australia's children [ 2012 - 2015 ]

Research Grant

Researchers: A/Pr Lisa Gold (Principal investigator)

Brief description There are many interventions competing for limited funds in Australian child population health. One problem is that evidence is limited to short-term and disease-based measures, making it hard to choose between options. In this Fellowship I will use a proven economic priority-setting approach to prioritise options for investment. This research will build my skills in policy-level decision-making; this and the study results will make me an independent research leader in child health economics.
