The Aurum Project is an Australian facility for homeopathic medicine research which received approval as a charitable institution in 2005.

Mission Statement

The mission of the Aurum Project is to advance the understanding and practice of homeopathy in Australia by promoting and conducting research into the use of homeopathic medicines for childhood health and behavioural problems. 

 Aims

The Aurum Project aims to promote and develop research in the homeopathic profession and enable a pathway for homeopathic researchers. By acting as a research partner for grant applications it aims to encourage collaboration between homeopathic practitioners and medical researchers. The Aurum Project plans to make the information gathered from research available to the homeopathic profession and the public. As well as validating homeopathy as a viable form of primary health care, our aim is for the results of the research to enable parents to confidently consider this method of health care for their child.

Our Vision

Our vision is to provide contemporary evidence to validate and promote the use of high quality homeopathic treatment in Australia for childhood health and behavioural problems.

The Aurum Project is the first homeopathy charity to be registered in Australia, setting a special precedent in recognising the appropriateness of wholistic research.  In response to the rising incidence of children's behavioural disorders and the increasing number of parents asking for help, the Aurum Project was developed to promote education and research about homeopathic treatment for children.

 The Aurum Project  is dedicated to research into behavioural issues stemming from emotional or physical causes. The health problems include: ADHD, allergies, asthma, ear problems, eczema, fever, sleeping problems, tantrums, teething, tics and twitches.

Aurum (pronounced or-um) is the name used for the homeopathic medicine prepared from gold.  Aurum is one of the remedies used to treat people suffering anxiety and depression, which is commonly seen in adults.  However, there are also many kids who feel the same way, and kids can sometimes have trouble putting those feelings into words. Anxiety, sadness and a whole range of other issues affecting children often manifest as behavioural changes and can easily be misunderstood by those around them. Aurum, or gold, therefore also represents the return to a whole and balanced state, with the child shining in full health.
