Welcome

The Collaboration of Community-based Obesity Prevention Sites (CO-OPS Collaboration) is an initiative funded by the Australian Government Department of Health and Ageing which aims to support community-based obesity prevention initiatives through a collaborative approach to promoting best practice, knowledge translation and by providing networking opportunities, support and advice.

Our goals
