The Victorian Public Health and Wellbeing Outcomes Framework is a first for Victoria.
It provides us with a new approach to monitoring and reporting on our collective efforts to improve health and wellbeing over the long term. Importantly, the Outcomes Framework enables assessment of health and wellbeing inequalities, where data is available.
The Outcomes Framework provides a comprehensive set of public health and wellbeing outcomes, indicators, targets and measures for our major population health and wellbeing priorities and their determinants.
The Outcomes Framework will be used to support a shift from a focus on inputs and outputs, to a focus on achieving lasting health and wellbeing outcomes for our communities. It will help us to focus our efforts and investments on those areas and populations where outcomes are not equitable or where progress is not being made, helping to create a Victoria where everyone is as healthy and well as they can be.
