About us

Health and Social Change Australia is a for purpose organisation dedicated to supporting health promotion and social impact initiatives across Australia and globally.

We collaborate with various stakeholders, including non-profit organisations, government agencies, social enterprises, and research institutions, to design, implement, and continuously monitor initiatives that foster healthy communities and environments. From small towns in outback Queensland to organisations across the Western Pacific, the United Kingdom, Europe, and India, we are dedicated to ensuring that evidence is implemented, communities have a voice, and most importantly, we focus on health promotion and prevention. This approach enables communities to benefit from research and evidence on creating healthy environments, preventing diseases, and promoting health. We achieve this through our three main areas of work: education and events; consultancy; and collaboration and collective impact.
