    Sustainability in Healthcare Towards 2030 Poster for Australian Nursing and Midwifery Conference 2021.pdf

    No full text
    In 1992 the United Nations (UN), governments and major parties set an agenda for sustainable development at the ‘Earth Summit’ in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil known as Agenda 21 to guide sustainable development globally into the 21st century. Subsequently this led to the development of the UN Commission for Sustainable Development and in 2015 the adoption of 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals for achievement in 2030 by all member states. Almost 30 years have passed since the Earth Summit and the world is tracking negatively in many of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals. The impact of coronavirus has reversed the progress made and has exacerbated inequalities within and between countries (UN, 2020). The World Health Organisation (WHO) has estimated that there will be an estimated 250,000 additional deaths per year from malnutrition, malaria, diarrhoea and heat stress due to climate change from 2030 (WHO, 2018). This poster aims to inform individuals, leaders and policymakers in the health sector of the Unsustainable Development Goals. Innovative and proactive strategies on how to adapt to this challenge based on research and evidence through environmental stewardship and healthy hospital initiatives can promote awareness and sustainable practices in the health sector. Ensuring there is the capacity to respond to extreme weather events through disaster planning and improved partnerships will be emphasised. References: United Nations. (2020).

    A Broader Palate? The new and Exotic Food Experiences of the Australian Imperial Force 1914–1918

    No full text
    This article explores the new food experiences of the Australian Imperial Force (AIF) during the First World War, drawing evidence from scholarly works, archives and soldier accounts. Having come from a predominantly British food culture in Australia, the AIF encountered new tastes and eating habits in the Middle East and Europe, which they experienced in dual roles as soldiers and tourists. Some soldiers responded warmly while others reacted defensively to these new foodways such as self-catering, exotic ingredients and dishes, regular dining out and new food customs. The lack of long-term impact of these novel experiences on Australian foodways is also noted

    Disruptive Changing Higher Education Ecosystems: Have University Academics Been Gazumped?

    Get PDF
    Continual reforms in the Australian Higher Education Sector result in ongoing significant changes to the experiences of the Australian academic. As a result, massification, internationalisation and corporatization form the landscape of academia in Australia. The Australian University Accounting Academic (AUAA) faces ongoing challenges and opportunities within this dynamic academic environment, and this study explores these challenges in relation to teaching themed issues that confront the AUAA. By using a questionnaire and interviews with AUAAs, three themes emerged, being curriculum, teaching workload, and the impact of online teaching. The “ASSET” support framework is developed from these conversations with the AUAA’s to help them become an “asset” to the university during these times of disruptive change instead of allowing the system to “gazump” them

    Attachment or Antithesis? Middle School Children and Writing as Relational Consciousness

    No full text
    Using a bricolage of design and methodologies, the research findings unpacked in this paper emerged out of a qualitative project that sought to illuminate a key aspect of the ‘four resource model’ of writing. This critical point of speculative focus was the notion of the habitus-writing connection, and how, if at all, it arose within the writing of twenty-six grade six students in one Catholic school in northern California. The ‘four resource model’ takes up Bordieu’s1 concept of habitus as being internalized predispositions, which are the ‘product of a shared history in a child’s family’2 In regard to writing, it has been ventured that young children are subject to both the home life literary influences, as well as the literary aspects within their socio-cultural spheres. However, these influences are not set in cognitive-concrete, as they also appear to place their own perspectives into the texts they create: innovating and exploring as they write. While initial interrogation of the data revealed evidence of a habitus related to genre, ensuing ‘focused coding’ revealed evidence of a secondary layer of reflexivity underpinning the surface features of their texts. This layer of meaning making had characteristics of a melding of attachment and the spiritual notion of ‘relational consciousness.’ It would appear that, for these children at least, a key component of personal writing is a connectivity grounded in relationships

    The Trial of Jesus before Pilate in the Fourth Gospel: A Comparison with Mark

    Get PDF
    This article proceeds through a series of integrated sections. First, the problem of the Fourth Gospel’s (FG) positioning of the scourging of Jesus and the Roman soldiers’ mocking of him in the midst of the trial is compared with Mark’s account of the trial. Second, by drawing on contemporary sources the methods of Roman crucifixion are examined to provide a guide for interpreting the Biblical data. Third, the efforts to harmonize the FG with the other Gospels by suggesting it referred to a lighter lashing are examined and found wanting. The next four sections develop John’s approach to the Trial as a drama; not as fiction, but as a creative reshaping of his data. By placing the mocking as well as the scourging of Jesus prior to Pilate’s handing him over to be crucified allows the FG to climax the drama with Jesus finally exiting from the praetorium to face his accusers for the first time as their King (Messiah)
