CUCRH will significantly contribute to the health of rural and remote Western Australian communities through education, professional development and research. It will do this by:

increasing the numbers of student - weeks spent in rural and remote locations in medicine, nursing and allied health teaching programs
raising the profile of rural teaching, research and practice in academic departments,
increasing recruitment and retention rates by supporting effective strategies to make rural and remote practice more professionally rewarding,
contributing to an increased number of skilled Aboriginal people working in the health sector, and
becoming a centre known for innovative and practical rural and remote population health research and policy analysis.
