How does ONE organisation use epidemiological data in Australia? - HSC - SSCE Personal Development and Physical Education - Question 21 - 2023 - Paper 1

The Cancer Institute of NSW used recent epidemiological data to support the need to develop their 'Arrows' Skin Cancer Prevention Toolkit. This toolkit was designed to address the prevalence of skin cancer in Australia, particularly among the young population.

Data collected showed that previous campaigns had successfully reduced morbidity and mortality due to skin cancer. By analyzing this data, the Cancer Institute was able to reinforce the necessity of their new campaign, specifically targeting young people to raise awareness of skin cancer risks and promote preventive measures.
