Project receives fifth consecutive contract to strengthen sexual health and blood-borne virus research
The SiREN Management Team has achieved a contract five-peat, after the WA Department of Health awarded them $1.29 million for their fifth consecutive contract for the Sexual Health and Blood-Borne Virus Applied Research and Evaluation Network (SiREN) project 2026-2030.
Overseen by Curtin’s Collaboration for Evidence, Research and Impact in Public Health (CERIPH), SiREN is a partnership between researchers, service providers and policymakers working to strengthen evidence-informed policy and practice in WA.
The project aims to:
- Strengthen the research, evaluation and health promotion skills of people working to promote sexual health or prevent or manage blood-borne viruses.
- Promote and facilitate opportunities for collaboration between sexual health and blood-borne virus service providers, policymakers and researchers; and
- Foster links with national sexual health and blood-borne virus research centres and contribute to appropriate national research agendas in order to raise the profile of sexual health and blood-borne virus concerns affecting WA.
