Our research

At The Kids Research Institute Australia, we've been thinking of the kids for 35 years. We are finding the answers to some of the biggest problems facing the health and wellbeing of children and families. Our Research Themes host defined programs of work where the Institute has clear strengths and capacity. Our overarching commitment to First Nations Health and Equity is embedded across all our work and features as a core consideration in each Research Theme. The Institute is committed to ending the disparity in health and wellbeing outcomes between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal kids and families.
