SARRAH NATIONAL CONFERENCE 2022
This year’s theme – People, Purpose Passion: Pathways to Success with the sub-themes of Growing and Sustaining the Rural Allied Health Workforce, Strengthening Partnerships, and Leading Change will provide collaborative opportunities for people live in rural and remote areas and work in allied health sector offering the chance to share knowledge, perspectives, and best practices.
We applaud headway being made, where leaders have conscientiously acted to avoid the traps of established practice and mechanisms that have failed to address, and even perpetuated, inequality for generations. The partnership between governments nationally and the Coalition of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peak Organisations to Close the Gap is an example. It is enabling greater communication, understanding and trust to develop. READ FULL MEDIA RELEASE
