Aboriginal Road Safety Health Lens
Aboriginal Road Safety Health Lens project identifies ways of increasing Aboriginal healthy life expectancy by improving road safety
The Health Lens Analysis (HLA) is a key feature of the Health in All Policies (HiAP) model and is an emerging methodology used by the South Australian government to translate the HiAP concept into action.

HiAP aims to identify key interactions and synergies between SASP targets, policies and strategies and population health and wellbeing.
A range of well established methodologies and tools are used to examine these connections in a rigorous and systematic manner.
There are five essential elements included in the health lens analysis process that underpin its effectiveness and ability to deliver mutually beneficial outcomes:
The Health in All Policies unit works collaboratively with representatives from a number of government departments (partner agencies) on Health Lens Analysis (HLA) projects. The projects are based around South Australia’s Strategic Plan targets or other key government priorities.
