Healthy Cities Onkaparinga (formerly
Healthy Cities Noarlunga) is a non-government organisation coalition of
agencies and community members which addresses health issues using the
World Health Organisation’s ‘Ottawa Charter for Health Promotion’ as its
primary reference.
Healthy Cities Onkaparinga has developed
a process that provides community members with the opportunity not only
to raise important health issues with representatives from the public
and private sector, but also the opportunity to work with these groups
to address the health issues.
In recent times, we have developed: a Food Security Collaborative, a Compassionate Communities Collaborative and a Dementia Friendly Alliance.
