Walk Alliance

In recognition of the importance of walking and 'walkability' as common goals for both health outcomes, active transport and activation of spaces, the Walk Alliance provides a forum for collaboration amongst ISJO councils, Health District, National Heart Foundation and Healthy Cities Illawarra that share responsibility for community health and well-being outcomes. The forum activities include:

• facilitating a coordinated approach to the implementation of strategies to improve walkability across the Illawarra Shoalhaven region
• lobbying and advocating for regional walkability
• information sharing and sharing of skills and expertise across members

The Walk Alliance was formed in 2018 and meets quarterly chaired by the ISJO.
