WHY WEIGHT WA?
[COMMUNITY ADVOCACY WEBSITE]
Annie Gan
Project Aim
To inspire and empower the West Australian community
to take action in the prevention of overweight and obesity
through the platform of an advocacy website.
Project goals
1. Draw the public’s attention to overweight/obesity issues in the community.
2. Link the community to government and non-government agencies to participate in
advocacy initiatives regarding overweight/obesity prevention.
3. Break down the barriers to peoples’ involvement in overweight/obesity advocacy in
the community through promoting and creating opportunities to advocate on
community issues.
4. Increase the profile of advocacy action through the use of ‘Local Voices’
• Raise the profile of members of the community
• Impart advocacy skills to the community, not only for advocacy on issues of
obesity but advocacy skills that can be applied to other issues affecting their
communities.
Background
The Why Weight WA website will perform a unique function as part of an overall
overweight/obesity prevention and advocacy strategy in WA.
• Gap for projects on wider structural change
• Changing the factors in our communities and wider social environments that are
barriers to healthier lifestyles.
Why is obesity an important issue?
• Almost 2/3rds Australian adults are overweight or obese.
• One in four Australian children are overweight or obese.
• In WA, obesity is now overtaking smoking as our leading preventable cause of
disease.
