Funding:
The cost of The Jean Hailes Foundation for Women's Health website is met from the Australian Government Department of Health and Ageing grant made available to The Jean Hailes Foundation for Women's Health in its capacity as a not-for-profit women's health education organisation.
The Jean Hailes Foundation for Women's Health is recognised by the Australian Tax Office as a not-for-profit organisation with "Research Institute" status. Like most other major, independent research organisations within Australia, including all Universities, funds for research activities are obtained from a spectrum of government and non-government sources. For The Jean Hailes Foundation for Women's Health, non-government donors include other philanthropic organisations and charities, private individuals and commercial organisations. Some donors however, specifically request anonymity as a condition of donating funds to The Jean Hailes Foundation for Women's Health. For this reason, individual details on donors (private or commercial) are not routinely made public.
The Jean Hailes Foundation for Women's Health has developed a significant reputation as an independent and objective source of information on the latest scientific developments in women's health. This independence and objectivity is recognised by government and the general public alike, and hence is rigorously guarded. In particular, we protect our academic freedom and right to speak objectively and openly on all matters, controversial or otherwise.
Grants and donations for research are only accepted on the basis of full academic freedom to publish all results deriving from the studies. Study results are published in international peer reviewed scientific journals that ensure objective scrutiny and assessment of all information before results are released publicly. Donors have no say or influence over what information is published or released. In addition the editors of medical journals have set policies to ensure that the financial associations of authors are disclosed and that published articles are not influenced by their financial associations. We support and comply with these policies.
The Board members of The Jean Hailes Foundation for Women's Health provide their time and expertise on an entirely voluntary basis and receive no fees, salaries or benefits for the work they undertake for the Foundation Board.
The Jean Hailes Foundation for Women's Health website does not receive funding from advertising and does not accept paid advertisements on the website.
