researchers: to encourage further research on issues affecting the wellbeing of Australian families the Australian community: to raise understanding and knowledge of family functioning. These strategies will be extended to the establishment of the Australian Gambling Research Centre within AIFS. A significant element of this strategy continues to be the delivery of the Institute's national information exchange services, which include: the Child Family Community Australia information exchange; the Australian Centre for the Study of Sexual Assault; and the Closing the Gap Clearinghouse, which is focused on improving understanding and outcomes for Indigenous families (delivered in partnership with the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare). The major external factors that may affect the capacity of the Institute to achieve its outcome are its ability to absorb the potential impact of the efficiency dividend and the potential reduction in the capacity of other government agencies to commission research from the Institute. However, AIFS will maintain its responsiveness to changing policy priorities within budget constraints.
