Amanpreet Kaur Dhindsa

Lyneham

Summary

A dynamic, impact-driven public health professional with a strong foundation in pharmacy, a fearless commitment to health equity, and a passion for transforming systems from the ground up.

From analysing cancer care in Sub-Saharan Africa, to leading culturally safe nutrition interventions for international students, and building evidence-based strategies to support domestic violence survivors in remote Australia—I bring a global lens to local challenges. My work on systematic reviews for Universal Health Coverage (UHC) has been rooted in rigour, relevance, and results.

Armed with training in health economics, promotion, and program evaluation, and a certification in feminist leadership (NETRI), I navigate complexity with both strategic insight and cultural humility. I’m the kind of professional who blends data with empathy, policy with people, and evidence with heart.

Outside the field, I’m an unapologetic book lover, a reader, reviewer, and literary soul drawn to everything from public health memoirs to psychological thrillers. Books keep my thinking sharp and my vision human-centred.

Whether I’m presenting to policymakers, co-creating with communities, or translating research into action—I bring energy, intention, and a relentless drive to build a world where systems serve people, not the other way around.
