Hands on Health
Monash Hands on Health
Hands on Health is an educational program that broadens exposure to health careers for students in Years 9 to 12. The program targets groups and communities who are underrepresented in the health professions. Through hands-on activities students learn about health professions, explore aspirations and find out about pathways to University and VET courses.
Our vision is to create a diverse health workforce that is representative of the communities it serves.
To participate you must be Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander, from a refugee or asylum seeker background or from low socioeconomic circumstances.
The Program
Since 2011, our program has worked in partnership with over 26 schools in the south east of Melbourne.
