Place-based initiatives aim to improve social, cultural, economic and/or physical environment factors, in order to improve health outcomes. They seek to reduce the disparity in health and mental wellbeing between people living in a defined area.

This resource has been designed to allow people to look at common themes and learnings experienced when implementing a place-based project. Themes include the current policy environment, applying a place-based structure, engaging with the community, evaluation, and sustainability.
