Western Australian Women’s Health and Wellbeing Policy: Lifting the Health Profile of Women and Girls

This state-based policy provides direction to the WA health system and its partners on how best to deliver strategies that optimise the health, safety and wellbeing of women and girls in WA, particularly those at greatest risk of poor health. The Policy reflects a continuing commitment to partner with key stakeholders to reduce inequalities and enhance the responsiveness of the health system to meet the needs of all women.
