Funded Activity Summary

Despite overall rural health disadvantage, lack of services and harsh environmental conditions, studies in Australia have found that rural women rate their overall health positively. The purpose of this study is to explore the factors which influence this perception of good health and find out more about the ways in which rural women achieve health and wellbeing. This will help to ensure that health policies and services meet the needs of rural women.
