The widespread maldistribution of the Australian health workforce is creating significant health human resource shortages in non-urban areas of need. Climate-related extreme weather events (i.e., heat, droughts, fires, floods) are projected to exacerbate workforce deficiencies in rural regions. This project aims to explore how climate change will impact the future of the rural health workforce through a novel integration of computational systems science methods. The project expects to discover new policies to correct the maldistribution and strengthen the resilience of the rural health workforce against climate change impacts. Benefits include a sustained and more adaptable workforce leading to improved health for vulnerable communities.

澳大利亚卫生工作人员的广泛分布不均正在造成非城市地区卫生人力资源的严重短缺。与气候有关的极端天气事件（即，炎热、干旱、火灾、洪水）预计将加剧农村地区劳动力的不足。该项目旨在探索气候变化将如何通过计算系统科学方法的新整合来影响农村卫生工作者的未来。该项目预计将发现新的政策，以纠正分布不均，并加强农村卫生工作者对气候变化影响的适应能力。好处包括可持续和适应性更强的劳动力，从而改善弱势社区的健康状况。
