The Australian Government has developed the National Health Literacy Framework, which provides a national approach to strengthening health literacy in Australia. The framework was developed by the Sydney Health Literacy Lab and the Sax Institute, drawing on the Lab's scientific expertise and extensive collaboration with more than 100 stakeholders and consumers.

The framework supports action to make health information and services easier to find, understand and use, while helping people build the skills and confidence to make informed decisions about their health and wellbeing.
