Project Outline
This project is funded through the Australian Research Council Linkage Grant and is running from 2007-2010. The project aims to strengthen Australia’s ability to effectively address a range of health policy challenges by developing new methods for building health policy capacity. There is currently little evidence on which to base capacity building initiatives. This project will identify and compare current approaches to the development and evaluation of health policy in a number of Australian state health jurisdictions as a basis for developing, implementing and evaluating a suite of new capacity-building strategies in different jurisdictions. These strategies will contribute to the future development of institutional and workforce capacity building and provide the basis for higher education and training in health policy.
Project Outcomes
The focus group interviews and face-to-face interviews with senior managers in South Australia and Queensland have now been completed and continue in ACT Health.
