More than $50,000 is available to encourage Western Australia communities to participate in healthy activities.
Overview
The Health Promotion Sponsorship Program is a key strategy to achieve Healthway’s vision of a healthy Western Australia. By working with organisations in arts, community events and sports Healthway has an opportunity to change behaviour and environments, to improve health.
Objectives
The objectives of the Health Promotion Sponsorship Program are:
- To encourage healthy lifestyles through the effective promotion of health messages relating to Healthway priority areas.
- To reduce, where ever possible, the promotion of unhealthy messages or brands which undermine Healthway objectives.
- To facilitate structural and policy change within organisations and venues to create healthy environments.
- To increase opportunities for priority populations to participate in healthy activities.
Funding
There are three Healthway sponsorship categories:
- Under $5,000
- $5,000 – $50,000
- Over $50,000
Eligible Projects
The Health Promotion Sponsorship Program is focused on two industry areas:
1. Arts and Community Events – Sponsorship support for arts and cultural activities such as festivals, theatre/dance productions, concerts, exhibitions and workshops, where there is a significant opportunity to change behaviours and environments to improve health.
Sponsorship support for community events such as agricultural shows, street festivals and cultural events that do not have a substantial arts focus, where there is a significant opportunity to change behaviours and environments to improve health. Community Events do not include swap meets, flea markets, seminars or similar activities.
2. Sports – Sponsorship support for programs and events within the sport, motor racing and active recreation areas, where there is a significant opportunity to change behaviours and environments to improve health.
