In July 2017, with funding support from VicHealth, Orygen and Victoria University, we began exploratory development of readyforwhatsnext as a modular and open source health economic model of resilience in young people.
Prototype
We have since expanded model scope to youth mental health more broadly and have released development versions of a some initial model modules. We have also released replication artefacts (analysis programs, reporting templates and datasets) for studies undertaken with model modules. These activites have been supported by an Australian Government Research Training Program (RTP) Scholarship funded PhD project and through multiple independently funded and governed modelling projects.
