Biography

Marilyn Wise is an Associate Professor at the University of New South Wales, Sydney, with extensive experience in health promotion, particularly focusing on reducing health inequities in populations. She has a strong background in reviewing and revising national public health policies and strategies, contributing to the evidence base that informs health promotion theory and practice.
