This resource has been designed to support local government in Municipal Public Health and Wellbeing planning by demonstrating the value of gender-disaggregated data and highlighting priority areas for men, women and gender-diverse people across the region. It may also be of use to those working in the health and community sector who are interested in gendered planning for social health outcomes.


Included in the resources are suggestions for areas of partnerships between local government and key stakeholders in the community, so attendance at the launch may be relevant for those working directly in local government and those with an interest in community health and wellbeing.


This short video explains the resource, the information it contains and how to use it for greatest impact.






WHGNE has also developed a Gender Equity Snapshot for each local government area, applying a tailored gender lens to education, workforce participation and safety and may be used in conjunction with the Planning Resource:
