Latest JHU News & Events

About the Justice Health Unit
People who come into contact with the criminal justice system are disproportionately drawn from society’s most vulnerable and marginalised populations. They are distinguished by a high prevalence of complex, co-occurring health problems, typically set against a backdrop of entrenched disadvantage.
The Justice Health Unit seeks to generate world-class evidence regarding the health and health service experiences of justice-involved populations, and to advocate for evidence-informed policy to improve their health and wellbeing. Research on the health needs of justice-involved populations is central to addressing health inequalities at the population level.
The Justice Health Unit works closely with health and justice agencies in Australia, leading researchers internationally, and key international agencies including WHO and ICRC.
Postgraduate supervision with JHU
Members of our Justice Health Unit (JHU) team are high quality supervisors who are experienced and available to supervise students at Honours, Masters and PhD levels, and for supervision of medical students doing research projects.

Our teaching
Short courses
The following short courses are offered by members of the Justice Health Unit:
Introduction to Data Linkage for Research
- This course provides an introduction to administrative data and data linkage. It is designed for policy makers, researchers, managers, analysts and others working in the public sector.
- No knowledge of data linkage is required, however basic familiarity with research methods is an asset. On completion of this course, participants will have a basic understanding of the practical considerations involved in using administrative data, and an awareness of the lifecycle of linked data research.
- Specifically, this course will discuss the application of linked administrative data to real-world problems, and outline how data linkage can be used to provide valuable, policy-relevant evidence. This course will consist of lectures and group discussions.
- The course is now held annually, online, over two half days.
- In addition, for groups of 10 people or more, this course can be tailored to your organisation's needs and delivered online or on site at your workplace depending on your location.
For more information, please visit the course webpage.
Prison Health Information Systems
- Prison health information systems are a prerequisite for effective healthcare in prisons, and there is growing recognition that prison health is an important part of reducing health inequalities globally.
- This interactive 1 day workshop comprises the following modules: 1.) Reasons why a prison health information system (PHIS) is important. 2.) Critical elements of a functional PHIS. 3.) Maximising the benefits of a PHIS locally, nationally, and regionally. 4.) Next steps.
- This short course, first delivered at a regional ICRC meeting in Manila in 2019 (participants pictured above), is targeted at prison health administrators, policy makers, researchers, and senior clinicians.
For inquiries about this course, contact JHU-Inquiries@unimelb.edu.au
