The Australian Longitudinal Study on Women’s Health (also known as Women's Health Australia) is a longitudinal survey of over 58,000 women in three cohorts who were aged 18-23, and when surveys began in In 2012/13 more than 17,000 young women aged were recruited to form a new cohort. ALSWH assesses women’s physical and mental health, as well as psychosocial aspects of health (such as socio-demographic and lifestyle factors) and their use of health services. Since its inception ALSWH has provided invaluable data about the health of women across the lifespan, and informed federal and state government policies across a wide range of issues. The study is funded by the Australian Government Department of Health.
ALSWH Data
Data may be made available to collaborating researchers where there is a formal request to make use of the material. Permission to use the data must be obtained from the Data Access Committee of ALSWH. A list of approved analyses and substudies curently being conducted with the Australian Longitudinal Study on Women’s Health data can be found here.
The survey collects information about participants' health and lifestyle but is used by over 650 collaborators - most of whom are not part of the original research team
