Our Three Year Progress Report (2005-8) was published in 2008.

NPiS STRATEGIC PLAN 2005-8

NPiS reflects the goals and objectives of the New Zealand Injury Prevention Strategy and endeavours to uphold the principles that underpin the development of the strategy. The group recognises a shared responsibility with Government and the community for achieving the results in the current 2005/08 Implementation Plan.

In 2005 NPiS developed a three-year Strategic Plan (2005-8). The plan expressed the commitment of the NPiS partners and participating organisations to continue to work collaboratively towards a shared vision of New Plymouth District becoming a safe community without the burden of injury. 

The Strategic Plan was updated in 2008. Our current Strategic Plan covers the 3 year period 2008-2011.

NATIONAL INJURY PREVENTION STRATEGY

June 2003 saw the launch of the New Zealand Injury Prevention Strategy (NZIPS) – outlining a nationally coordinated approach to injury prevention. The strategy aims to provide a consistent national framework and guide for action for policy development and service delivery. This is expected to encourage more effective use of resources and the development of better focused injury prevention efforts. 

In July 2005, an Implementation Plan was released for the strategy covering the three years 1 July 2005 - 30 June 2008.

For more information or to obtain a copy of the Strategy, visit the NZIPS website.

MONITORING AND REVIEW

Through the involvement of its constituent organisations in project delivery teams, NPiS maintains an overview of injury prevention interventions in the district and collaborates to encourage the development and implementation of plans that meet WHO developed criteria for International Safe Communities as follows:

• Long term sustainable programmes covering both genders and all ages, environments and situations.

• Programmes that target risk groups and environments and programmes that promote safety for vulnerable groups.

• Programmes that document the frequency and causes of injury.

NPiS, through the work of its member organisations, supports evaluation measures to assess programmes, processes and effects of change.

Overall progress towards making New Plymouth District a safe community will be measured through repeating the needs assessment process every five years.
