Abstract
The New Zealand Injury Prevention Strategy’s vision was for New Zealand to become injury free by achieving a positive safety culture and creating safe environments. This strategy focused on the areas of drowning, the workplace, motor vehicle crashes, suicide/self-harm, falls, and assault. Its implementation provided a framework for the development of injury prevention policy and activities related to services delivery. The first New Zealand Injury Prevention Strategy Implementation Plan took effect in July 2004. The evaluation was conducted with key stakeholders from governmental and nongovernmental organizations. The evaluation concluded that participants applauded the development of the New Zealand Injury Prevention Strategy and its Implementation Plan. Respondents recognized that the New Zealand Injury Prevention Strategy and its implementation had facilitated communities, institutions, and the general public in New Zealand to approach injury prevention in a more defined and proactive manner.
