Know Injury

The Know Injury program provides knowledge, skills and networking opportunities, to support and enhance the capacity of practitioners to deliver evidence-informed injury prevention activities across Western Australia.

Our ultimate goal is to prevent injuries in Western Australia. To achieve this we focus on three elements:

  • Know about injury topics
  • Learn a public health approach to deliver injury prevention activities
  • Connect with others in the injury prevention sector

The Know Injury program is provided by Injury Matters and funded by the Department of Health Western Australia.
