Comparing and contrasting ‘innovation platforms’ with other forms of professional networks for strengthening primary healthcare systems for Indigenous Australians
Summary. Innovation platforms—networks bringing together diverse stakeholders to solve complex problems—show promise for strengthening primary healthcare systems serving Indigenous Australians. The authors compare innovation platforms with other professional networks like communities of practice and quality improvement collaboratives, arguing that innovation platforms' emphasis on problem-solving within complex systems makes them particularly suited to health system challenges. They describe their ongoing research applying this approach to improve primary care for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander populations.
