Since our establishment, we have made a positive impact on the health of Queenslanders.
Our GenQ Impact Report (PDF, 13MB) demonstrates what Health and Wellbeing Queensland has achieved since our establishment as the State’s prevention agency. We want to make healthy happen and address health inequities, and since 2019 we have made a positive difference to communities right around the state.
Obesity is an epidemic impacting people of all generations and backgrounds. Our Generation Queensland (GenQ) vision is in response to evidence that children born this decade will have a reduced life span of up to 5 years.1 This is unacceptable and it is our aim to turn this statistic around by addressing the challenges facing our population today.
The GenQ Impact Report details the impact we have made in our first 5 years, highlighting:
- Strategies and action plans, including Making Healthy Happen 2032 and Gather + Grow 2023 – 2032
- Initiatives, including Podsquad, Pick of the Crop and A Better Choice
- Partnerships and prevention programs, including 10,000 Steps and Deadly Choices
- Success stories across Queensland.
We know we have more to achieve to empower and support Queenslanders to be as healthy as they can be and we are confident we can continue to create positive change.
