The Centre of Research Excellence in Stillbirth (Stillbirth CRE) has been established to address the tragedy of stillbirth in Australia through a cohesive national program of research and implementation. The Stillbirth CRE is funded by the National Health and Medical Research Council and functions as a  network made up of individuals and partner organisations sharing a common vision.

Our vision is to reduce the devastating impact of stillbirth for women, families and the wider community through improving care to reduce the number of stillborn babies and to reduce the impact of this loss.

We embrace the core pillars of successful collaboration of equity, transparency, and mutual benefit. We encourage a collaborative approach to research and education to more effectively answer important questions and improve outcomes for women and families. Strong links internationally through the International Stillbirth Alliance serves to ensure a high-quality program which contributes to reducing the global burden of stillbirths.

The Stillbirth CRE brings together parents, parent advocates, healthcare professionals, researchers, professional colleges and policy makers to reduce stillbirths and improve the quality care for women and families after stillbirth. The Stillbirth CRE program focuses on research that translates into improved maternity care and better health outcomes for women and their babies.
