Effectiveness of cross‐sector collaboration in strategy implementation and impact: Evaluation of the <scp>NSW</scp> Skin Cancer Prevention Strategy 2016–2022
Cross-agency collaboration and commitment were a key strength of the Strategy. The continued prioritisation of settings (e.g. schools, workplaces, etc.) and populations outlined in the Strategy were supported by the evaluation's findings. Additional focus areas for the new Strategy were highlighted, including secondary prevention or early detection. Continued skin cancer prevention activities, including social marketing campaigns and public education programs, are essential to ensure the adoption of sun protection behaviours by priority populations.
