The Monash community has identified feeling and being safe as essential to health and wellbeing and enjoyment of community life.
Working in partnership with community organisations and emergency services, we deliver year-round community safety programs and initiatives.
Our programs:
Safety is an important determinant of health and wellbeing. When people feel safe within their communities, they are more likely to connect with friends, engage in community life and social activities. Neighbourhoods which are perceived as safe, inspire community activity and participation, physical activity and community connectedness.
We all have a role to play in keeping our community safe. Together, we can create a safer and more resilient community.
