Our Work

Around the Traps is an irregular column provided by members of the network, with lead authors crowdsourcing input from members.

In this one-time webinar, we invited some of Australia’s leading consultants from diverse fields to come together and share their experiences of working as a public health consultant. The webinar was held online on 7 April 2022.

Participants of this roundtable will:

• Understand the potential pitfalls of consulting and how to avoid them
