Parkinson’s is now the fastest growing neurological condition in the world—and in Australia, more than 200,000 people are currently living with the condition.

A landmark National Parkinson’s Action Plan has just been launched at Parliament House, setting out a coordinated national roadmap to improve diagnosis, strengthen care pathways, expand research, and better support patients, families, and carers.

Developed through extensive consultation with people living with Parkinson’s, clinicians, and advocacy groups, the plan identifies critical gaps in the current system and calls for a more integrated national response to a rapidly growing health burden.

But with case numbers continuing to rise, the key question remains: will this plan deliver meaningful change where it is needed most?

We’re joined by Prof Carolyn Sue AM, Chair of the National Parkinson’s Alliance, to discuss why this plan has been developed now, what it aims to change, and what must happen next to turn policy into impact.
