CSU Centre for Inland Health - As Australia's Inland University, Charles Sturt University (CSU) is in a unique position to tackle the rural health crisis. In response to the existing lack of information and realistic solutions to meet the health needs of inland Australian communities, CSU has established the Centre for Inland Health. The Mission of the CSU Centre for Inland Health is to play a leading role in improving the health and longevity of people from inland Australia.
