Abstract
The Men’s Health Network (MHN) was established in
early 2000, following recommendations made in Moving
Forward in Men’s Health. It consists of representatives
from all area health services in NSW (Table 1). The chief
executive officers from all 20 area health services were
requested to nominate a men’s health representative.
Some areas had an existing representative, while others
sought nominations from staff members interested in men’s
health issues. The MHN is coordinated through the Men’s
Health Information and Resource Centre (MHIRC), which
provides advice and support to the MHN.
