This position paper reaffirms commitment by AHPA to planetary health and the critical role of health promotion in addressing climate change impacts.
Australia is one of the healthiest countries in the world. This is largely because of effective public health and its core services – protection, prevention and health promotion which includes action to create and support the ecological conditions that enable Australians to enjoy a healthy and happy life.
