Indicators of sustainable capacity building for health research: analysis of four African case studies.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Burden of disease (BoD) studies have been conducted in numerous international settings since the early 1990's. Two national BoD studies have been undertaken in Australia, in 1998 and 2003, although neither study estimated the BoD specifically for Indigenous Australians. In 2005 the Australian Government Depa...
