The Sydney Health Policy Network at the University of Sydney is pleased to present:

A unique opportunity to hear some of the key players in national health reform, and influence the health reform agenda by providing clear messages and desired outcomes for the coming years.

The morning session will provide attendees with an overview of the new national health funding and governance arrangements. The afternoon session will explore what these new arrangements mean for mental health in Australia and the prospects for ongoing reform.

Understanding this landscape will be critical to ongoing effective health policy and research.
