We are pleased to advise that the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare has implemented AusGOAL.  The material on its website is now generally licensed under Creative Commons Attribution Australia Licence 3.0.  As AIHW updates its agreements with their partner organisations they will be releasing significantly more information and data under open licences.

David Kalisch from the AIHW said:

“We publish a significant amount of information relating to the health and welfare of Australians, and are confident that AusGOAL will increase the public interest in and value of what we do.”

We also understand that the AIHW are the first Commonwealth Authorities and Companies Act organisation to implement AusGOAL as a general policy.

AIHW is an active participant in the Commonwealth AusGOAL Practitioners Network.  If you work for a CAC Act agency, and would like assistance implementing AusGOAL, please contact us.
