of children and young people, in Australia and in overseas.
From 2003 until he joined the University of Notre Dame Australia, he worked as a Senior Consultant in Community Paediatrics with Child and Youth Health in South Australia.

Before moving to South Australia Dr Nossar was the Service Director of Community Paediatrics for the South Western Sydney Area Health Service, where he worked on services to enhance the health and development of children. During that time, Dr Nossar also worked with The Cabinet Office of NSW and the NSW Commission for Children and Young People to develop and implement the Families First Initiative across NSW.
Dr Nossar has reviewed the child health services of several of the states and territories in Australia.
Dr Nossar has also worked overseas as the Australian Resident Adviser for the AusAID Health Services Development Project in Mauritius, building PHC services and systems for that country. He has also been a Technical Consultant in Child Health to the Guangdong Provincial Hospital for Maternal and Child Health, which is the principal hospital in one of the most populous provinces in China. Dr Nossar has undertaken consultancies for AusAID, UNFPA, WHO and The World Bank in the Pacific, in China, in Africa and several Indian Ocean countries.
