About Health & Society: Equity, well-being and the social and economic determinants of health
Conducting policy and practice relevant research into the social and economic determinants of health.
This group provides a focus for Flinders' established reputation for research into the labour market; housing, structure of suburban environments; economic, social and structural determinants of risky and unhealthy behaviours; and social, cultural and economic barriers to health and other related service use.
The ASRI works on the social and economic determinants of health within Australia and collaborates with colleagues overseas.
This ASRI is closely linked with the Aboriginal Health Research Unit and the Cooperative Research Centre for Aboriginal Health (CRCAH)
