Eat Well Tasmania can help you find others
to work with.
Working in partnership means working together to achieve a
common goal. 
Fostering partnerships for nutrition promotion is at the heart
of the Eat Well Tasmanian program.
Eat Well Tasmania is keen to form partnerships with
any individuals, groups and organisations that support Eat
Well Tasmania’s
vision and the Dietary
Guidelines for Australians.
We can help you form partnerships with the food industry,
health services, education, community, government and non-government
organisations, and others who are interested in promoting enjoyable
healthy eating.
Working together has many advantages including shared and
greater benefits for each member of the partnership, a sense
of team effort and a greater chance that your project will
continue into the future because there is shared ownership
by others.
By working together to encourage healthy eating, especially
of Tasmanian products, the local food industry is supported
and consumers are encouraged to make healthier food choices.
