At a time of clear evidence regarding climate change, DGCHS, as a major provider of community health and support services in its local community, has a responsibility to ensure it understands and actively works toward reducing its own environmental impact in its community.
In keeping with Doutta Galla Community Health Service's commitment to promoting a healthy community an Environmental Advocacy Group (EAG) has been established.
-
The Environmental Advocacy Group provides information to assist DGCHS understanding of its impact on the environment through both carbon emissions, water usage and other critical community environmental issues.
-
The EAG provides practical strategies to assist DGCHS to reduce its environmental impact and footprint.
-
The EAG educates and informs DGCHS management, staff and consumers about environmental strategies and best practice.
-
The EAG may assist with advocacy of environmental best practice in the catchment, as deemed appropriate.
