Moreland Health and Wellbeing Profile (December 2020)
The Merri-bek Health and Wellbeing Profile was updated in December 2020.
The Community Wellbeing and Research Teams have produced a Health and Wellbeing Profile documenting the health and wellbeing of Merri-bek residents and the environments where they live.
The profile explores the status of health in the community with sections on Physical Health and Mental Health, and also looks at the environments that impact on health outcomes. These include: Healthy Food Environment; Alcohol, Tobacco, and Gambling Environment; Active and Green Living; Moving Around; Local Living; Local Identity & Participation; Learning Environment; Safe Environment; Safe and Affordable Housing; and Healthy Livelihoods.
This profile was informed by the social determinants of health, city resilience, and liveability.
