About IOBI


The Injury Observatory for Britain and Ireland (IOBI) has been established by members of the Association of Public Health Observatories in collaboration with a number of key academic institutions.

The purpose of the thematic injury observatory is to support injury prevention practitioners by making important and relevant information and tools available in one site, including:

  • Analyses of trend in injury deaths, hospital admissions and injury occurence across countries and regions
  • Policy support for prevention - abstracts and links to policies and strategies which support injury prevention
  • Evidence base for prevention – links to systematic reviews of what works in preventing injuries and summaries, guidance and briefings on evidence.
  • Access to practical prevention tools – e.g. the on-line SAFEHOME
  • Latest injury prevention news - through access to various electronic newsletters and a news section.
  • Information on conferences and events.
