Victoria is served by an exceptional collection of nationally and internationally recognised hospitals, research institutes and tertiary education institutions. These institutions provide Victorians with high class healthcare and education and perform world class research. Their work keeps Victoria at the forefront of medical research and clinical practice.
The Parkville Precinct, located on the northern edge of Melbourne’s Central Business District (CBD), is home to a number of well-established health, research and education institutions, which deliver high levels of health, social and economic benefits to Victoria and Australia.
Parkville’s history is entwined with health, research and education. The Precinct is highly developed and has many significant commercial, residential and parkland interfaces. Continued development is critical for the Parkville Precinct to remain at the forefront of healthcare, research and education, and continue to deliver benefits to the Victorian community.
The Parkville Precinct Strategic Plan has been developed to assure the Precinct’s ongoing important role in healthcare, research and education.
The 10-year Plan will guide the Parkville Precinct’s development and strongly position the Precinct to take advantage of its institutions, established links, advanced infrastructure and supportive environment.
The Plan is the result of the work of the Parkville Precinct Strategic Plan Steering Committee. Many organisations were consulted in its development, including healthcare, education and research institutions, and community groups.
The Committee developed a shared vision for the Precinct, identified five key elements for focus and made 20 recommendations, 17 of which were supported by Government.
