Health promotion is a powerful and cost effective way to maintain a healthier community. It enables people to increase control over and improve their health.

Funding Schemes

VicHealth adds strength to other organisations working in health promotion through the provision of funding and other resources. Every year, we fund hundreds of projects, with funds going to a range of organisations, both large and small.

We distribute more than $23 million annually, mostly through funding schemes and research. We also invest in developmental (seeding) work and commissioned programs.
