La Trobe continues to make a global impact! In the 2026 Times Higher Education Sustainability Impact Rankings, we're proud to be:
π₯ #3 in the world for Good Health & Wellbeing
π₯ #2 in Australia for Gender Equality
The significant rise of 24 places to secure the worldβs third place for Good Health and Wellbeing underscores the strength of La Trobeβs continued investment in Health Innovation.
The rise in ranking for Gender Equality (from ninth last year) reflects our sustained, whole-of-institution approach to advancing gender equality.
βThese rankings recognise the depth of La Trobeβs contribution to improving health outcomes, advancing gender equality and reducing disadvantage, both in our regions and globally,β said Vice-Chancellor Prof. Theo Farrell.
βOur rise into the global third position for health is a powerful endorsement of our Health Innovation Strategy, which has seen an investment of $170 million to date and is driving research, partnerships and workforce development to meet the needs of communities.β
