Community engagement and participation: Within the last five years, Mr Mulholland has responded to community concerns about the impact of relocation for End Stage Kidney Disease (ESKD) treatment away from home. He has actively sought partnerships with Australian and NT government agencies, non-government service organisations and Menzies School of Health Research to make this possible.
