POLICY STATEMENTS & SUBMISSIONS

POLICY STATEMENTS

The PHANZ is actively involved in influencing public health policy. One way we do this is by developing evidence-informed Policy Statements. 

POLICY SUBMISSIONS

Public health policies play a crucial role in shaping the well-being of individuals, communities, and entire societies. Effective, evidence-based policies are essential for creating healthier, more resilient societies. We invite contributions for Public Health related policies, submissions, bills and legislation as we continue to act as advocates for public health policy statements and submissions.
