Centre Vision

To ensure that sex and gender are routinely considered in health and medical research, policy, and practice, with a view to improving health outcomes and reducing health inequities for all Australians, not only women and girls, but also men and boys, people with variations of sex characteristics (Intersex), trans and gender diverse people.

The Centre endorses a strong intersectional approach to sex and gender research, policy, and practice, acknowledging the multiple factors that intersect to impact on health outcomes and health inequities. The Centre has prioritised engagement with First Nations people in its establishment and growth.

The Centre will:

Undertake and support the conduct of high-quality research.

Facilitate the translation of research into evidence-informed policies and practices. 

Build capacity in addressing sex and gender health and medical inequities, via training and education. 

Communicate and advocate for the integration of sex and gender in health and medicine.

Engage and collaborate with end-users, communities and other stakeholders to advance culturally appropriate activities.
