Tasmanian Plan for Physical Activity 2011-2021 (Australia)

The Tasmanian Plan for Physical Activity 2011-2021 was released in Febraury 2011  by the Premier’s Physical Activity Council. The plan aims to increase the rates of participation in physical activity by different age groups by 10 per cent by 2021.

The plan has four goals:

Goal 1: Become a community that values and supports physical activity

Goal 2: Create built and natural environments that enable and encourage physical activity

Goal 3: Develop partnerships that build and share knowledge and resources

Goal 4: Increase opportunities for all Tasmanians to be physically active where they live, work and play

The plan recognises that active transport – walking or cycling to school, work, the shops, the playground and so on – is better for our health and wellbeing than driving or being driven all the time. Creative combinations of active and passive transport, like catching the bus and getting off early, or driving and parking the car some way from our destination, can quickly build up our levels of activity.
