Australia’s priority populations can struggle with poor health and wellbeing because of system inequities, social exclusion and limited access to care. These health challenges can be made worse by cultural differences, remote locations and financial hardship.
The MRFF’s Reducing Health Inequities Mission is investing $150 million for research that helps priority populations access quality health care and improve their overall health outcomes.
The EAP will advise the Australian Government on the strategic priorities for investment under the mission.
The EAP will provide its advice by developing a Roadmap and Implementation Plan for the mission.
To meet their objectives, EAP members will have diverse skills and backgrounds. We are seeking applicants with expertise and experience in a range of areas which may include:
- consumers and those with lived experience
- health and medical research or clinical research expertise
- experience in community-based population health research activities
- experience and expertise in primary health care service delivery with a focus on health system inequities research
- experience in First Nations health
- experience and expertise in health and medical research translation and implementation, interventional research/clinical trial and/or evaluation
- researchers involved in the translation of health equity research into a new clinical practice or health policy.
Applications close on 17 October 2025.
