  • AIS and Black Dog Partner to Improve Mental Fitness in Young Australians
    AIS and Black Dog partner to improve mental fitness in young Australians 27th July 2020 EMBARGOED UNTIL 10AM MONDAY 27TH JULY 2020 Australian Olympic, Paralympic and Commonwealth Games athletes are joining the fight to help reduce rates of mental health issues in young children as part of a new community partnership between the Australian Institute of Sport (AIS) and Black Dog Institute. Designed to help young people manage their mental health and improve their general wellbeing, the Mental Fitness Program will see 27 current and former elite athletes assist in delivering mental wellbeing presentations, both in-person and online, at high schools throughout the country. Mental Fitness Program presenter and Commonwealth Games gold medal winning boxer Harry Garside said his personal experience with mental health education at school was a game-changer. “I wanted to get involved in the Mental Fitness Program because I know firsthand that these workshops can have a significant impact and change the course of a young person’s life,” said Mr Garside. “As an elite athlete, I want to role model behaviour that promotes self-care and positive psychology to help improve the wellbeing and resilience of young Australians.” In Australia, it is estimated that 1 in 5 people will experience symptoms of mental illness in any given year, and approximately 60% of those people won’t seek help. Over 75 per cent of mental health issues develop before the age of 25 which shows the importance of tackling the subject from an early age. Black Dog Institute Director and Chief Scientist Helen Christensen said the ability to bring sport and community together to teach meaningful life skills was needed now more than ever.

  • Project Overview and Methodology
    Project Overview and Methodology o what are our national sporting organisations, federal and state government departments, human rights and anti-discrimination agencies and non-government Sbodies doing to combat racism and prejudice in sport? And what steps have been taken to develop an inclusive, non-discriminatory culture within sport by players, spectators and the broader viewing public? To find an answer to this, over the past six months the Human Rights and Equal Opportunity Commission (HREOC) has been working on a project funded by the Department of Immigration and Citizenship to conduct a survey of these different groups to see what strategies and projects have been put in place to achieve these goals. Project outline The following activities were undertaken as part of this project. l An audit of the existing strategies that have been adopted by selected sporting organisations, codes, government and non-government sports’ agencies and human right institutions, both domestically and internationally (selective), to combat racism and prejudice within sport. Included in this audit are those strategies that utilise sporting events and/or sportspeople to convey a message of cultural inclusion and non-discrimination directed to sporting spectators and the broader viewing public. This audit will identify gaps in the existing strategies and identify potential new strategies. l Gather available baseline data in relation to the level of participation by Indigenous and Culturally and Linguistically Diverse communities in sport. l Consult broadly with relevant organisations to expand on available material in this area. l Provide the audit report as a basis for DIAC to consider future policy strategies aimed at both addressing racism within sport, as well as promoting an inclusive and non- discriminatory attitude by players, supporters and the broader viewing public.
