Burnet Institute is a leading not-for-profit, unaligned, and independent Australian medical research and public health organization focused on achieving better health for vulnerable communities in Australia and internationally by accelerating the translation of research, discovery, and evidence into sustainable health solutions. The Institute is headquartered in Melbourne with programs that run across Asia, the Pacific and in Africa. This includes technical specialists, scientists and researchers based in our Melbourne office and international staff working through international offices in Myanmar and Papua New Guinea.
The Burnet’s work in PNG is guided by the Burnet PNG 2030 Strategy which has equity at its centre as it aims to “Reach for the many”. The Strategy has four key pillars – Health Impacts, Organisational Capacity, Our People, and Our Partners. For more than a decade, Burnet has addressed some of PNG’s critical health problems by implementing community-based programs using international development and public health principles. We have also undertaken social and clinical research, supporting the development of an improved evidence base to inform policy development. Partnering with both government and nongovernment health agencies and regional research networks, we have focused programming on major health issues including maternal, child and adolescent health; sexual and reproductive health; immunisation; vector-borne diseases such as malaria; and major public health threats such as HIV and tuberculosis.
