Wellington Injury Forum and ICE Meeting 2012 Welcome and overview Ronan Lyons Chair, ICE

Acknowledgements Anna McDowell and Stats NZ team for sponsoring the Wellington Injury Forum meeting Pauline Gulliver for her tremendous work in organising the meeting even though she knew she could not attend Kingsgate Hotel staff Belinda, Kirsten and Pauline for organising speakers

Why a joint meeting? Number of groups with very similar interests and cross- involvement or membership Some organisations/individual cannot cope with even a limited attendance fee We wish to be inclusive and hence joint injury fora/ICE/other group meetings is a pragmatic solution – More about transparency, democracy and membership tomorrow Wish to acknowledge the contribution of the host city – so in 2012 we have Wellington Injury Forum London Olympics

Injury ICE Long history. Purpose, structure and membership concepts revised in 2012 – More tomorrow International Collaborative Effort on Injury Statistics and Methods (Injury ICE) is an organisation dedicated to developing common standardised methods to compare injury statistics across the globe in order to support appropriate policy responses to the global burden of injury. Membership is open to all who share this vision Participation is particularly encouraged from individuals who are willing to engage in core areas of activity and help organise future ICE/Injury Fora meetings, and especially from those who can contribute data and analyses and engage in multi-national collaborative projects.
