NPHP Work Program

The NPHP work program aims to meet key priorities in public health, as set out in the NPHP Agenda 2002-2004 [PDF, 141kb].

The Work program is progressed through sub-groups, which have been established to address each priority work area. Occasionally project-specific committees are established to meet work program requirements.

The NPHP also manages projects to enhance public health practice in Australia. These projects are guided by time-limited steering committees.
