Connecting the next generation of Australians working toward better health, everywhere.

Different paths. Shared purpose.

YAGH is an emerging collective of young Australians thinking and working across global health. We come together to question inherited assumptions, test ideas and learn from people with different perspectives. Not to arrive with all the answers — but to build better approaches together.

Better questions. Better approaches.

Different knowledge, brought together. Collaboration over hierarchy. Capacity over dependency.

A note on the group: we’re shaping YAGH with early-career people roughly 25–40 in mind, but there’s no minimum or upper age limit. Commitment matters more than your age.

04 / Built together, not prescribed

Stronger systems. Shared ideas. Lasting impact.

Stronger systems. Shared ideas. Lasting impact.

A space to think critically and build constructively. The community will take shape through the people who join it — and the questions we ask together.

01

Community

A collective where different kinds of knowledge belong. Collaboration matters more than titles, seniority or hierarchy.

02

Events

Honest conversations about what works, what doesn’t and what needs to change — with space to listen as well as speak.

03

Opportunities

Ways to learn alongside others and contribute to work that strengthens skills, shared knowledge and lasting capacity.

04

Ideas

A place to challenge outdated models, test new approaches and share what we’re learning — including what we haven’t figured out.
