National Tobacco Campaign

www.quitnow.gov.au

The National Tobacco Campaign aims to contribute to a reduction in the prevalence of adult daily smoking from 15.9 per cent currently, to 10 per cent or less by 2018. To achieve this, several marketing activities combine to engage with current smokers to encourage them to make a quit attempt, support current quitters in making their quit attempt and help them reduce their chance of relapse.

Measure Up ‘Swap it don’t stop it’

www.swapit.gov.au – a call to make easy, small, healthier lifestyle choices to reduce the risk of illness and disease. Released 13 March 2011

The Measure Up 'Swap It Don’t Stop It’ campaign featured Eric, an animated blue balloon character, likeable but overweight. On television, in print and on the radio, Eric urged Australians to make some simple lifestyle changes to become healthier – for example, to swap big for small (portion control); swap often for sometimes (occasional treats); swap fried for fresh (nutritional quality); swap sitting for moving (physical activity); and swap watching for playing (physical activity).
These campaigns are funded through the National Partnership Agreement on Preventive Health (PDF 382 KB)
