About Painaustralia
Who We Are
Painaustralia is the national peak body working to improve the quality of life of people living with pain, their families and carers, and to minimise the social and economic burden of pain.
Painaustralia represents the interests of a broad membership that includes health, medical, research and consumer organisations.
Established in 2011, our focus is to work with governments, health professional and consumer bodies, funders, educational and research institutions, to facilitate implementation of the National Pain Strategy Australia-wide.
Our vision and mission
To ensure all Australians living with pain can easily access affordable world-class pain treatments and care.
Painaustralia as the national peak pain advocacy body is dedicated to improving the well-being of people living with pain, their families and carers.
We work collaboratively with key stakeholders to elevate pain as a priority in the broader health agenda, driving conversations and raising awareness of the profound impacts of pain to reduce the associated stigma and ensure those affected receive the care and support they deserve.
