Latrobe Health and Wellbeing Charter
The Latrobe Health and Wellbeing Charter defines the values and guiding principles of the Latrobe Health Innovation Zone. The Charter reflects what the Latrobe Valley community identify as important to their health and wellbeing.
The Latrobe Health Innovation Zone - the first of its kind in Australia!
The Latrobe Valley has been designated a Health Innovation Zone as recommended by the Hazelwood Mine Fire Inquiry. It gives voice to community aspirations in the planning and delivering of better health and wellbeing outcomes, and where a process of co-design with individuals and organisations is actively encouraged.
