Primary prevention in Victoria has a proud history of grassroots engagement that has increasingly led to a diverse sector of skilled primary prevention practitioners and organisations coming together to lead and grow this work. The regional primary prevention partnerships convened by women’s health services have been a key part in supporting grassroots primary prevention across the state. The Respectful Gippsland Partnership; is one such example of grassroots primary prevention through partnership.

Join Gippsland Women’s Health and the Partners in Prevention (PiP) Network, convened by Safe and Equal for an interactive discussion to launch this new and exciting primary prevention partnership, Respectful Gippsland. Come together to hear about and discuss the central role of partnerships to advancing primary prevention across Victoria.

Morning tea and a light lunch will be provided.
