  • Illawarra & Shoalhaven Sexual Health & Blood Borne Infections Directory
    Illawarra & Shoalhaven Sexual Health & Blood Borne Infections Directory Intention of the directory: What is sexual health? According to the World Health Organisation sexual health is not merely the absence of disease, dysfunction or infirmity, but rather, sexual health includes a holistic state of physical, emotional, mental and social well-being. As such, sexual health requires a respectful approach to sexuality and relationships, free of coercion, discrimination and violence. Who is HARP? The HARP Health promotion team promote prevention, early intervention, treatment and management of HIV/AIDS, Hepatitis C and Sexually Transmitted Infections. The HIV and Related Programmes Unit (HARP) activity is guided by National, State and Local Health District strategies that aims to improve sexual health and reduce the harm associated with Sexually Transmissible Infections (STIs), HIV and Hepatitis C. The HARP team partner with community organisations who engage and represent people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds (CALD), young people, Aboriginal people, sex workers, gay men, men who have sex with men (MSM), people living with HIV, people who inject drugs, and heterosexuals with a recent change in partner. HARP provide a range of free resources, work in collaboration with partner organisations on projects and develop awareness raising and capacity building training sessions. What is the intention of HARP? Our intention is to create a positive environment in which the community feel comfortable to approach the issues of HIV, STIs and Blood Borne Infections (BBIs) and acknowledge the realities of their impact both within our own communities and globally. We work towards creating an environment where HIV, STIs and BBIs can be discussed, accepted and ultimately prevented without fear, myth, stigma or discrimination.

  • Feasibility of a Multi-Generational Birth Cohort Study Michelle L
    Townsend et al. Pilot and Feasibility Studies (2019) 5:32 https://doi.org/10.1186/s40814-019-0418-5 STUDY PROTOCOL Open Access Illawarra Born cross-generational health study: feasibility of a multi-generational birth cohort study Michelle L. Townsend1,2, Megan A. Kelly1,7, Judy A. Pickard1,2, Theresa A. Larkin1,3, Victoria M. Flood5,6, Peter Caputi1,2, Ian M. Wright1,3,4, Alison Jones1,3 and Brin F. S. Grenyer1,2* Abstract Background: There is a strong interest in the concept of developmental origins of health and disease and their influence on various factors “from cradle to grave”. Despite the increasing appreciation of this lifelong legacy across the human life course, many gaps remain in the scientific understanding of mechanisms influencing these formative phases. Cross-generational susceptibility to health problems is emerging as a focus of research in the context of birth cohort studies. The primary aim of the Illawarra Born study is to make scientific discoveries associated with improving health and wellbeing across the lifespan, with a particular focus on preventable chronic diseases, especially mental health. This birth cohort study will follow and collect data from three cohorts representing different stages across the lifespan: infants, adults (parents) and older adults (grandparents). The multi-generational, cross-sectional and longitudinal design of this birth cohort study supports a focus on the contributions of genetics, environment and lifestyle on health and wellbeing. The feasibility of conducting a multi-generational longitudinal birth cohort project was conducted through a small pilot study. Methods/design: The purpose of this paper is to report on the feasibility and acceptability of the research protocol for a collaborative cross-generation health study in the community and test recruitment and outcome measures for the main study.

Thanks to you Wollongong, together we have saved the Gong Shuttle. We signed petitions and held a public rally in the Wollongong Mall, to tell the Berejiklian Government just what we all thought of its plan to introduce Opal fares on the free Gong Shuttle service. After months of hard work and negotiations, an agreement has finally been reached where the Gong Shuttle will remain free and continue to operate 7 days a week on its existing routes, which includes stops at the University of Wollongong, Innovation Campus, Wollongong CBD and Wollongong Hospital. There will be minor changes to the timetable on Sundays and public holidays. On these days, Gong Shuttle services will run between 9.40am and 5.20pm, instead of starting at 8am and finishing at 6pm. Buses will continue to run every 20 minutes. The agreement between Transport for NSW, the University of Wollongong and Wollongong City Council makes sure that the Gong Shuttle service remains free. Does the NSW Government have some of your money? There’s more than $380 million of your money, waiting to be claimed from deceased estates, dividends, bonds and overpayments, according to Revenue NSW. So what are you waiting for? Go to www.revenue.nsw.gov.au/ucm/search to see if any of the unclaimed money is yours.

The energy, creativity and dynamism required to implement such massive change is immense, but Chinese Universities, Industries and Central and Provincial Governments are determinedly rising to these challenges. Welcome to the Engineering Comprehending the scale of China’s achievements and ambitions is not an easy matter.
