We give a diverse, cross-disciplinary community of thinkers space to imagine<em> </em>solutions to Australia's most urgent challenges, and we connect their ideas with policy-makers, media and concerned citizens. </p><p><a href="http://cpd.org.au/node/4038">read more</a></p> Wed, 27 Jun 2007 14:38:24 +1000 Admin 4038 at http://cpd.org.au http://cpd.org.au/node/4396 <ul> <li>In the first of two articles<a href="http://blogs.crikey.com.au/croakey/2010/03/10/part-1-how-to-save-billions-in-health-costs-john-menadue/"> John Menadue</a> tells Crikeys Health Blog, Croakey How to save billions in healthcare</li> <li>In the second of two articles on Croakey<a href="http://blogs.crikey.com.au/croakey/2010/03/10/part-2-how-to-save-billions-in-health-costs-ian-mcauley/"> Ian McAuley</a>  suggests how billions could be trimmed from the health budget.</li></ul><p><a href="http://cpd.org.au/node/4396">read more</a></p> http://cpd.org.au/node/4396#comments Wed, 27 Jun 2007 14:35:36 +1000 Miriam Lyons 4396 at http://cpd.org.au
