Based in Greater Sydney, the Chinese Medicine Centre serves one of Australia’s most culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) communities. We have built strong partnerships with local areas
to promote health, wellbeing, and cultural understanding through TraditionalChinese Medicine (TCM).
Chinese medicine exists to heal — to ease suffering and restore balance. Education exists to inspire — to nurture the next generation of compassionate, skilled health professionals.
Our community work is the best example of this integration: at the heart of our mission, our students are the bridge between learning and healing — applying what they learn to real-world community health projects. Through research, service, and collaboration, the Centre connects ancient wisdom with modern community needs, advancing both knowledge
and care.
