The Top Health Fair is a new initiative of the Health Promotion Unit. It addresses a wide variety of common tropical health and lifestyle issues and recognises there are unique issues in the Top End not otherwise dealt with in national or Territory campaigns.
For this reason, the Health Promotion Unit began an intense period of consultations with some eighty health and allied professionals in August, 1989 to determine priorities for a tropical health and lifestyle
campaign. As a result, the Top Health Fair concept was developed and the document "Top Health Fair" produced and circulated.
