AUSTRALIAN INTERNATIONAL HEALTH INSTITUTE

Established as a not-for-profit organisation of the University of Melbourne in 1998, the Australian International Health Institute (AIHI) aims to increase the capacity of health workers and planners across the Asia-Pacific region to respond to the health needs of their populations through education, research, leadership development and health specialist services.

Recognising that sectors other than health make a major contribution to the health of societies, AIHI brings a multidisciplinary approach to international health. AIHI collaborates with centres and professionals from the Faculties of Medicine, Dentistry and Health Sciences, Law, Education, Arts, Engineering and Economics.

Based on AIHI's commitment to buidling capacity and generating sustainable project outcomes, AIHI has fostered alliances with governments and non-government organisations (NGOs) in the region, Australian and regional institutes and universities, as well as multilateral agencies, bilateral donors and global foundations.
