The MindCare Collective is guided by a nationally unique Program Advisory Group (PAG), chaired by Mrs. Dilnaz Billimoria.
Bringing together expertise from state-based ethnic communities councils, academic institutions, clinicians, CALD community leaders, project partners, and consumer advocacy organisations, the PAG ensures our program remains community-led, culturally informed, and evidence-based.
The PAG provides strategic advice to the research teams, supports alignment with policy and practice, and ensures the needs and perspectives of CALD communities are embedded in dementia risk reduction, health promotion, and education activities.
