27 Jan 2020 Art of good health partnership grants

Vic Health

Vic Health invites organisations to consider how they might access VicHealth Partnership Grants through innovative partnerships with organisations who qualify as official funding recipients (e.g. Local Councils).

Arts and creative approaches have great potential to enhance health promotion strategies. They can meaningfully engage people with complex issues and generate new solutions, and they can increase community engagement alongside other strategies that are being used to address the health problem, such as policy change or organisational development.

The Art of Good Health program will provide support for councils to design new projects that address health problems or enhance health promotion strategies by introducing the role of arts and creative approaches within them. Our aim is to increase the use and application of arts and creative approaches within local health promotion strategies and programs.
