Long Story Short: Reshaping the narrative of women’s sexual and reproductive health (formerly Storylines), is a multiyear project collecting lived-experience perspectives to inform advocacy, resource development and research into improving sexual and reproductive healthcare and information for women* in regional Victoria.
Supported by quantitative data collection and the expert opinions of health professionals from across the Goulburn North East and Loddon Mallee regions, lived-experience perspectives form the heart of the Long Story Short project, and inform the solutions-based advocacy and practical resource development intended as an outcome of the project.
WHGNE will be holding a series of focus groups on sexual and reproductive health over October and November 2023.
WHLM will be undertaking a series of solutions-based workshops with communities in early 2024.
The Storylines project began in 2019 to collect lived experience data from women living in the Goulburn North East and Loddon Mallee areas, around sexual and reproductive healthcare in a rural and regional context.

Women’s Health Loddon Mallee acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of the lands on which we live, work and play.
We celebrate and respect the unique cultural and spiritual relationship that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples share with the lands, sky and waters and the ongoing contribution their cultures make to the life of the region.
As we pay our respects to Elders past, present and future, we pledge our commitment towards reconciliation and justice.
We recognise the strength and resilience of all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and are dedicated to a future in which they feel connected, empowered and safe within the communities of the Loddon Mallee region.
