Child safety Protecting children from abuse is everybody’s responsibility, and an organisation’s leadership is essential to instilling a child safety culture in that organisation. Our Board has expressed a strong commitment to developing and maintaining a Child Safety Culture at the ABCI. They have developed a robust Child Safety policy and are committed to a process of continual review to ensure the safety of all children and young people in our care. Our Child Safety Officer As part of our ongoing commitment to Child Safety, a Child Safety Officer (currently Jacinta Sonego) assists ABCI staff and volunteers manage child safety concerns regarding the children under the care of the ABCI according to The Australian Boys Choral Institute Child Safety Policy. Jacinta can be contacted on 0408 853 606. Our commitment to child safety The Australian Boys Choral Institute is committed to the safety of all children and young people. We want children to be safe, happy and empowered. We support and respect all children, as well as our staff and volunteers. We have zero tolerance of child abuse, and all allegations and safety concerns will be treated very seriously and consistently with our robust policies and procedures. When we are worried about a child’s safety, we follow rigorously our legal and moral obligations to contact authorities. The Australian Boys Choral Institute is committed to preventing child abuse by identifying risks early, and removing and reducing these risks as much as we can. The Australian Boys Choral Institute has robust human resources and recruitment practices for all staff and volunteers. We are committed to regularly training and educating our staff and volunteers on child abuse and safety risks. We are committed to the cultural safety of Aboriginal children, the cultural safety of children from culturally and/or linguistically diverse backgrounds, and to providing a safe environment for children with a disability. We have specific policies, procedures and training in place that support our leadership team, staff and volunteers to achieve these commitments. Leadership in a child safe environment Working with children can be very rewarding, and it brings additional responsibilities. We will act to protect children from abuse in our organisation, and build an environment where children feel respected, valued and encouraged to reach their full potential. This requires a culture of child safety to be embedded throughout the Australian Boys Choral Institute so that child safety is part of everyone’s everyday thinking and practice. Such a culture is achieved through proactive leadership in demonstrating the values, attitudes and behaviours of the organisation. excellence is well informed A child safe environment is the product of a range of strategies and initiatives. The Australian Boys Choral Institute fosters a culture of openness, inclusiveness and awareness. Children and adults should know what to do if they observe or are subject to abuse or inappropriate behaviour. All staff and volunteers should consider the safety of all children and recognise the importance of cultural safety for Aboriginal children, cultural safety for children from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds, and the safety of children with a disability. Staff and volunteers We take all reasonable steps to employ highly skilled people. We develop selection criteria and advertisements which clearly demonstrate our commitment to child safety and an awareness of our social and legislative responsibilities. Our organisation understands that when recruiting staff and volunteers we have ethical as well as legislative obligations. All our staff, including volunteers attending Weekend Workshops, Summer Music Schools, Tours, or working with the Caring, Concert or Wardrobe Teams and Board Members, are required to hold a Working with Children Check and to provide evidence of this Check. We ask that all of our staff and volunteers agree to abide by our Child Safety Code of Conduct which specifies the standards of conduct required when working with children. Our Child Safety Officer runs regular Child Safety Training sessions. These sessions educate our staff and volunteers on our child safety practices, inform them how best to work with our children and how to respond to any instances of suspected child abuse. The Institute has committed to ensure that all our staff, including volunteers attending Weekend Workshops, Summer Music Schools, Tours, or working with the Caring, Concert, Wardrobe Teams and Board Members, are required to complete our Child Safety Training Program. Any other parents or volunteers are also welcome to attend these training sessions. Dates are advertised in the calendar in CHANT, and bookings are made through the choir office. Support and education is important to ensure that everyone in our organisation understands that child safety is everyone’s responsibility. Our organisation’s culture aims for all staff and volunteers (in addition to parents/carers and children) to feel confident and comfortable in discussing any allegations of child abuse or child safety concerns. We support our staff and volunteers to identify, assess, and minimise risks of child abuse and to detect potential signs of child abuse. We also support our staff and volunteers through ongoing supervision and training to develop their skills to protect children from abuse; and promote the cultural safety of Aboriginal children, the cultural safety of children from linguistically and/or diverse backgrounds, and the safety of children with a disability. We remain committed to the cultural safety, participation and empowerment of LGBTQI (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer or Questioning, and Intersex) children. If you would

  • Music on PBS: a History of Music Programming at a Community Radio Station
    Music on PBS: A History of Music Programming at a Community Radio Station Rochelle Lade (BArts Monash, MArts RMIT) A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy January 2021 Abstract This historical case study explores the programs broadcast by Melbourne community radio station PBS from 1979 to 2019 and the way programming decisions were made. PBS has always been an unplaylisted, specialist music station. Decisions about what music is played are made by individual program announcers according to their own tastes, not through algorithms or by applying audience research, music sales rankings or other formal quantitative methods. These decisions are also shaped by the station’s status as a licenced community radio broadcaster. This licence category requires community access and participation in the station’s operations. Data was gathered from archives, in‐depth interviews and a quantitative analysis of programs broadcast over the four decades since PBS was founded in 1976. Based on a Bourdieusian approach to the field, a range of cultural intermediaries are identified. These are people who made and influenced programming decisions, including announcers, program managers, station managers, Board members and the programming committee. Being progressive requires change. This research has found an inherent tension between the station’s values of cooperative decision‐making and the broadcasting of progressive music. Knowledge in the fields of community radio and music is advanced by exploring how cultural intermediaries at PBS made decisions to realise eth station’s goals of community access and participation. ii Acknowledgements To my supervisors, Jock Given and Ellie Rennie, and in the early phase of this research Aneta Podkalicka, I am extremely grateful to have been given your knowledge, wisdom and support.

  • Committee Secretary
    Committee Secretary Standing Committee on Communications, Information Technology and the Arts House of Representatives Parliament House Canberra ACT 2600 AUSTRALIA <[email protected]> Submission 71 This submission is made by the Music Broadcasting Society of Victoria - 3MBS. Executive Summary 3MBS supports Australian classical music and people interested in classical music. Volunteers at 3MBS record and broadcast local, young and visiting musicians. Independent support for local music and culture through participation by local community members is the cornerstone of community broadcasting. Community broadcasting stations like 3MBS undertake a range of activities to enrich local culture. The government can build on the work carried out by community broadcasting stations through meaningful and strategic support for community broadcasting’s place within digital broadcasting platforms. It can also provide more meaningful support for community broadcasting’s training role and programming initiatives. Australia has the most developed community broadcasting sector in the world. To build on this achievement, the government can provide a framework for further development. There are five times more community stations than ABC stations across Australia. Ten percent of the budget allocated to the ABC would be a baseline amount for ensuring the sound development of community broadcasting in this country. Preamble The MBS stations in Melbourne and Sydney were the first licensed FM stations in Australia. They successfully pioneered the licensed broadcast use of the FM band before other sectors had focussed on the medium. They were the first stations licensed to address a niche audience’s listening needs. They were also the first to encourage listeners to participate in their operations.

  • A Future for Community Radio in Australia
    A Future for Community Radio in Australia: Funding, licensing and legislative issues Saba El-Ghul Submitted in partial fulfillment of requirements for KK51 Master of Arts (Research) Creative Industries Research and Applications Centre Queensland University of Technology 2004 Keywords Community, radio, funding, licensing, sponsorship, philanthropy, marketing, legislative issues. 1 Abstract The community radio sector is an important cultural resource for the Australian community. It is experiencing rapid growth with an increase in the number of licensed radio stations, however, government funding has not proportionally increased and this is threatening the financial viability of many stations. The key issue addressed in this research is the need to find ways to enhance community radio’s sources of funding without imperilling its status as a not-for-profit sector. This study argues that there is no inherent conflict between entrepreneurial principles and not-for-profit principles, and as long as all revenue is invested back into the station, then there should be no limit on income generation for community radio. Overseas community radio experience supports this argument. 2 Table of Contents Chapter One – Introduction .................................................................................6 The Argument.............................................................................................6 A Short History of Community Radio........................................................14 Funding: strategies and case Studies ......................................................20
