About us

The Rural Health Research Institute (RHRI) has been established to conduct research that addresses the health gap in communities across regional, rural and remote Australia. The RHRI provides a critical pillar of research infrastructure to CSU that enhances the existing health and medicine programs and provides pathways for building research capability and capacity across CSU’s regional footprint. 

We are a university of the land and people of our regions. True to the character of regional Australia we have gumption, we have soul and we collaborate with others. We develop holistic, far-sighted people who help their communities grow and flourish.

The Wiradjuri phrase yindyamarra winhanganha means the wisdom of respectfully knowing how to live well in a world worth living in. This phrase represents who we are at Charles Sturt University – our ethos. It comes from traditional Indigenous Australian knowledge, but it also speaks to the mission of universities – to develop and spread wisdom to make the world a better place.

Harnessing technology, we thrive as a distributed yet connected community, welcoming and engaging with people across Australia and the world.

Charles Sturt University is an equal opportunity employer committed to diversity and inclusion.
