PHM Victoria kicked off into existence with a great evening of presentations and discussion on Thursday, 24 March 2005. David Legge introduced the group to the history and aims of PHM globally then Sally Kingsland gave a short talk on 'brain drain' issues and how they relate to Australia. Deb Gleeson introduced the Community Health Links Project and was followed by Jon Ehsani who talked about his recent experiences with PHM India. We finished up with some time discussing the possible directions and actions of PHM in Australia and in Victoria in particular. Many thanks to all who attended - on the night before the Easter break!
