Welcome to the Australasian Injury Prevention Network

The Australian Injury Prevention Network (AIPN) was established in 1996 as the peak national body advocating for injury prevention and safety promotion in Australia. In 2017, the network extended its activities to New Zealand and became the Australasian Injury Prevention Network.

Through conferences, publications, events, advocacy activities and research, the Network benefits from its high profile, influential membership base of leading injury prevention researchers, and those working to reduce the incidence of injury and harm throughout Australasia.

We look forward to welcoming you as a member of the Network. I encourage you to become an active member of the Network and benefit from the sharing of information and interaction with other members.
