Overview

The aim of this program is the promotion of healthy lifestyle choices to reduce chronic disease. There are four components to the program:

• EON edible gardens
• EON healthy eating
• EON healthy homes
• EON training and education.

Several remote Indigenous communities in the Kimberley region of Western Australia are taking part in the project. Not all communities are currently participating in all components of the program. The first step is implementing EON edible gardens, which form the foundation of EON thriving communities.
