Integrated Data for Better Health Outcomes for All Australians

Cancer Determinants

Working with Cancer Council Queensland and the Australian Cancer Atlas, AusUrb-HI will develop indicators quantifying the association between demographic, socioeconomic, health services and environmental determinants to the incidence and survival rates for major types of cancer for urban and regional areas across Australia

Heat Health Vulnerability

AusUrb-HI will develop a population heat health vulnerability indicator that combines data on population demographics, socioeconomic characteristics, health and environmental conditions in order to understand the locations of greatest population vulnerability to current (and potentially future) extreme heat events

Urban Liveability & Health

In collaboration with the RMIT Centre for Urban Research (https://cur.org.au/) AusUrb-HI will generate indicators that give new insight into the liveability of Australian urban and regional areas from a health perspective

AusUrb-HI COLLABORATORS

This project received investment from the Australian Urban Research Infrastructure Network (AURIN), the Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) and the Population Health Research Network (PHRN).

AURIN, the ARDC and the PHRN are funded by the National Collaborative Research Infrastructure Strategy (NCRIS)
