About the Foundation

The Injury Prevention and Management Foundation’s (Foundation) purpose is to fund research and education, and to service development programs that are directed towards the prevention and improved management of injuries resulting from motor accidents.

It is expected that funding appropriate projects may lead to benefits including:

• Reduction in the frequency and severity of injuries from road accidents;
• Improved access to quality medical, rehabilitation and long-term care services;
• New developments/techniques in some areas of injury management; and
• Minimisation of the costs of the scheme to the Tasmanian Community.
