Global Health, Local Skills

In this episode of RG Life Hacks, Dr Emily Moody speaks with Dr Lachlan McIver, Rural Generalist, public health physician, tropical medicine specialist and global health advocate, about how Rural Generalist skills can translate into global health.

The conversation follows Lachlan’s journey from rural and remote practice in Australia to roles with the World Health Organization and Médecins Sans Frontières. Drawing on experiences from the Torres Strait to South Sudan, he reflects on working with limited resources, adapting to unfamiliar environments and making decisions when information and support are scarce.

Lachlan also explores the generalist mindset that has shaped his career, including working across different parts of the health system, responding to uncertainty, recognising your own limits and trusting your instincts.

This episode is essential listening for registrars interested in global health and how the adaptability, breadth and problem-solving skills of Rural Generalism can be applied beyond rural Australia.
