How Do Traditional and Mainstream Care Meet in Your World?
Do you have a spare five minutes? Global survey for healthcare providers, policymakers, researchers and the public (18+).

Around a third of Australians visit providers of traditional or complementary medicine (T&CM), and use is high around the world. We know what the statistics say, but what do you observe as a health care provider, administrator, policymaker, researcher or member of the public?
Invitation: Please complete and forward the global survey about experiences and perceptions of traditional and complementary medicine (T&CM) providers.
Who can complete it? Anyone aged 18 years and over
Time: 5-10 minutes. The survey is open until the end of March 2026
Why should I do it? Your insights will complement existing country-level survey data and may help guide future policies and practice.
Language: The survey is in English but we can respond to queries in French, German, Portuguese, and Spanish
Funding: This is supported by a University of Melbourne Research Impetus Grant
