Shout out to my awesome colleagues Social Research @ANU. There was a room for sensory quiet at the #ASPC2023. It was incredible. If you’re hosting an event please consider whether this might be an option for you. ourANU

What the president said. I say this having experienced unemployment and poor mental health. EVERYONE deserves humanity.

Oh my goodness. This is huge! Each one of these people can easily make 100 calls. The hope and connections being made are immeasurable.

A fantastic #ASPC2023, with lots of fabulous panels, participants, and conversations The highlight, though, was getting home to find my 6yo had put together a ‘welcome home party’ for me, with streamers, balloons, a homemade piñata, and a crown. ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ 😭

On #insiders guest interview w Warren Mundine misrepresents the Howard gov’t Indigenous advisory committee - the #NIC. It is widely reviewed an ineffective sham. No power, no resources, no agenda, no impact on policy set by hostile government.

Huge crowd at the Canberra #yes23 walk today. So much hope and positivity #voicetoparliament #ulurustatement

Australians are answering the invitation from Indigenous Australians through the Uluru Statement. They’re saying Yes to recognition. Yes to a better future. And on October 14, Yes to the Voice. #yes23

Anyone telling you to “snap out of post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)” or “get over it” because of a random list of false equivalencies (aka “my granddad went to war & Im fine”) has clearly never had PTSD. Not everyone exposed to traumatic events will develop PTSD. This needs

Come work with us! This is a great opportunity to work on an exciting project on the social dimensions of climate change with my fabulous colleague Dr Bec Colvin here at ANU Crawford School of Public Policy Research Fellow position 👇 jobs.anu.edu.au/jobs/research-… Dr Colvin 👇 crawford.anu.edu.au/people/academi…

As a nation we must take this opportunity to recognise our First Peoples. We cannot leave this task to future generations. I urge all Australians to respond to this referendum with love, trust and kindness for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities.
