The Social Deck led national consultations for the development of a new national obesity strategy. On behalf of the COAG Health Council working group (comprising Commonwealth and state and territory health departments), we met face-to-face with more than 600 people including people and organisations representing targeted population groups. We delivered 7 community forums and a road show of 36 community discussions, as well as an interactive online webinar and two online surveys.
Working with our expert researcher, Nat from MindTap, we created a long-form survey which was used to allow organisations to equally contribute and respond to detailed proposals outlined in a consultation paper.
Overall, more than 2000 individuals and organisations contributed to the consultation process.
We’re looking forward to sharing more about this project in the near future.

The Social Deck acknowledges the traditional custodians of Country throughout Australia and recognises their continuing connection to land, waters and community. Our staff live and work on the lands of many First Nations peoples, including the Gubbi Gubbi or Kabi Kabi people, the Turrbal and Yuggera people, the Bundjalung people, the Ngarigo and Ngunnawal people and the Wadawurrung people. These peoples have lived on and cared for these lands for thousands of generations, and their sovereignty has never been ceded. We pay our respects to them and their cultures, and to elders past and present.
