I am honoured to be able to share this special event with you, and your family and friends. During your time with the University of South Australia you have developed a set of distinctive qualities which describe the knowledge, skills and personal abilities that you will need as you move into a constantly changing global economy. You have acquired an international outlook; a capacity for critical thought and lifelong learning; an ability to communicate effectively and work autonomously and cooperatively; and a sense of social responsibility. You are well equipped to succeed, confident in the knowledge and skills you possess. Congratulations and all the very best as you start the next big adventure in your lives.

Vice Chancellor’s welcome Graduating with a university degree represents a major milestone in life. Now you’re about to enter a whole new world of wonderful opportunities. You will leave us today with a parchment and a career path and we couldn’t be prouder of you. I am very pleased to share the excitement of this day with you and with the people who have supported you throughout your studies: your family, your friends and your mentors. Yours is the first graduation ceremony of this our 25th year and we’re celebrating your success along with our own. We have come a long way since 1991 when we amalgamated colleges of advanced education and institutes of technology to become the University of South Australia. Now we’re considered one of the world’s best young universities, an enterprising institution putting our best teaching and research into creating bright futures for our students and partnering with industry and the professions to bring the benefits of that teaching and research to our community. I hope the achievement you celebrate today opens many doors of opportunities for you so that you can make your mark as a global citizen, a professional in everything you do. You, like more than 195,000 graduates who have preceded you, are very important to us; you are our success stories, the role models for current students and those who might follow in your footsteps. As your career grows and your success is assured, current students look at you and see what’s possible in their own lives. I wish you every success, happiness and prosperity as you take your first steps into your new lives as graduates of the University of South Australia.

    DON DUNSTAN FOUNDATION 1 DON DUNSTAN ORAL HISTORY PROJECT Sue BRITON-JONES This is George Lewkowicz from the Don Dunstan Foundation interviewing Sue Briton- Jones for the Don Dunstan History Project. The topics will be Aboriginal rights and related issues and some other areas like planning and the environment in the Dunstan years. The date today is 20th December 2007 and the location is Sue Briton-Jones’ office, 8th Floor Riverside in North Terrace, Adelaide. Sue, thanks very much for being willing to contribute to the Don Dunstan History Project. Can you just provide a short background on yourself, your studies and how you got into the public service and where you started? Well, my first degree was in Psychology at Flinders University. Subsequently I started a master’s in Town Planning at University of Adelaide, also did some part-time Law studies, and in particular in about ’96 did a course on Indigenous Australians and the Law at Flinders University. From about 1970 to ’94 I spent about ten years in Department of Premier and Cabinet, in and out, about ten years in total. I worked for the new Department of Environment when it was first established but going in and out of the public service. I worked as a management consultant for PA Management Consultants in Melbourne in about ’84–85, worked as the adviser to Susan Lenehan who was then the Minister for Environment and Planning from about 1990–91, MFP1 Development Corporation, subsequently worked for Robert Tickner who was the Commonwealth Minister for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Affairs, and then I worked as a self- employed consultant from ’96–98 working primarily on Aboriginal issues.

  • Policy Life Cycle Analysis of Three Australian State-Level Public
    Article Journal of Development Policy Life Cycle Policy and Practice 6(1) 9–35, 2021 Analysis of Three © 2021 Aequitas Consulting Pvt. Ltd. and SAGE Australian State-level Reprints and permissions: in.sagepub.com/journals-permissions-india Public Policies: DOI: 10.1177/2455133321998805 Exploring the journals.sagepub.com/home/jdp Political Dimension of Sustainable Development Kuntal Goswami1,2 and Rolf Gerritsen1 Abstract This article analyses the life cycle of three Australian public policies (Tasmania Together [TT], South Australia’s Strategic Plan [SASP,] and Western Australia’s State Sustainability Strategy [WA’s SSS]). These policies were formulated at the state level and were structured around sustainable development concepts (the environmental, economic, and social dimensions). This study highlights contexts that led to the making of these public policies, as well as factors that led to their discontinuation. The case studies are based on analysis of parliamentary debates, state governments’ budget reports, public agencies’ annual reports, government media releases, and stakeholders’ feedback. The empirical findings highlight the importance of understanding the political dimension of sustainable development. This fact highlights the need to look beyond the traditional three-dimensional view of sustainability when assessing the success (or lack thereof) of sustainable development policies. Equally important, the analysis indicates that despite these policies’ limited success (and even one of these policies not being implemented at all), sustainability policies can have a legacy beyond their life cycle. Hence, the evaluation of these policies is likely to provide insight into the process of policymaking. 1 Charles Darwin University (CDU), Alice Springs, Northern Territory, Australia. 2 Australian Centre for Sustainable Development Research & Innovation (ACSDRI), Adelaide, South Australia, Australia.

  • Veterans' Voice
    When originally unveiled the obelisk was sited in nearby “Wattle Grove” on Sir Lewis Cohen Avenue. The memorial was moved to its present site in 1940. The creators of “Wattle Grove” saw it as Veterans’ Voice a symbolic battlefield or metaphor for the Dardanelles, with the obelisk representative of the cliffs the Australians had climbed at Gallipoli. The cross, which was added in 1918, recognises the Allies’ withdrawal from Gallipoli and the sacrifice of those who remained buried there.
