The 16th National Conference for Rural and Remote Allied Health is the premier national gathering dedicated to strengthening allied health services in rural and remote Australia.
The 2026 conference invites participants to explore how local identities, cultures, environments, and community knowledge shape the delivery of accessible, culturally safe, and sustainable allied health care across rural and remote regions.

Supporting this conference means investing in a future where all Australians—regardless of where they live—can access high‑quality, locally informed allied health services.

What Your Support Makes Possible

By partnering with Services for Australian Rural and Remote Allied Health (SARRAH), sponsors help:

  • Advance equitable health outcomes for people living in rural and remote communities, including First Nations communities.
  • Strengthen a nationally connected allied health workforce, enhancing access to essential services.
  • Amplify place‑based knowledge and culturally safe practices, ensuring health care reflects local contexts and community wisdom.
  • Showcase innovation in rural and remote health service delivery and workforce development.

This conference serves as SARRAH’s leading event for knowledge exchange and sector leadership, bringing together practitioners, academics, students, service providers, and government representatives. It is supported by a national promotional campaign across industry channels, giving sponsors broad visibility within a high‑value audience.
