OHA Annual General Meeting May 13 2026
Outdoor Health Australia community and membership gathered online on May 13th for the 2026 Annual General Meeting, providing an opportunity to reflect on a significant year, acknowledge the many people contributing to OHA, and look ahead to the organisation’s next chapter. The meeting opened with an Acknowledgement of Country from Uncle Ken Jones, Boandik man and wisdom elder, followed by a welcome from Chairperson Tom Mulvaney on behalf of the Board and presentation of the Annual Statement, celebrating the collective achievements of our members, volunteers and leadership team.
Members endorsed the previous AGM minutes and elected the 2026–27 OHA Leadership Team, including the Board of Directors, Committee Conveners and Regional Representatives. We extend our sincere thanks to the outgoing leaders for their dedication and warmly welcome those stepping into leadership roles to continue guiding OHA’s strategic priorities. Together, our volunteer leaders contribute hundreds of hours each year to advancing evidence-informed outdoor health practice across Australia.
The AGM highlighted another productive year for OHA, with continued progress across research, practice quality, policy and advocacy, community engagement and organisational development.
Thank you to everyone who contributes to Outdoor Health Australia. Whether through leadership, committee participation, regional activities, research, advocacy or everyday practice, your contribution strengthens our organisation and helps shape a connected, inclusive and evidence-informed future for outdoor health.
