"I have just come back from working in London for three years and I can remember what Not The West was like when I left. Boy, what a non-event. It looks more like an international newspaper now, though without any international content. Reminds me of The Guardian. They are both printed on paper. I suppose Not The West is intellectually a bit more upmarket than it used to be (page three is particularly challenging and I just love the Today section) but it is easy to read (not too many big words) and relaxing (doesn't make you think). I've noticed a more positive news presentation, (take the editorials for example) the reporting is more authoritative (they NEVER seem to admit they don't know; I just LOVE authority) and there is not as much 'fence sitting' these days. It used to be so conservative! I have never thought of Not The West like this before but I don't know, this strange feeling has come over me. It's 30 minutes of the day I always look forward to, in fact it's become the most important 30 minutes of my day. Who needs exercise? By the way, you should see their fantastic web site!"

  • The Future of Global Health
    The Future of Global Health Gustav Nossal When I was a child, I was by no means alone in having Albert Schweitzer (1875–1965) as one of my great heroes. Organist, philosopher, physician and humanitarian, he inspired the world as a medical missionary in Africa. Early in life, he determined to pursue his interests in music, theology and ethics up to the age of 30. Thereafter, he would serve human- ity directly and exclusively, with Jesus as his example. He started studying for a medical degree in Strasbourg in 1905, getting his MD after seven tough years, and then he set off for Lambaréné in what is now Gabon. He built a small hospital with money he had raised himself both by giving organ recitals and by a vigorous fund-raising effort in Germany and France. His wife acted as his anaesthetist. In the first nine months they treated 2,000 patients. With several years’ inter- ruption due to World War I and to poor health, Schweitzer continued to go back and forth to Gabon for the rest of his life, and died in his beloved hospital aged 90. All the while, he continued his search for a universal ethical philosophy with reverence for life as its centrepiece. In an essay written the week before his death, he revealed his two heroes as being Goethe and Gandhi. He stated: ‘I live my life in God — the personality — I only experience in myself as a mysterious impulse’; and he gave the results of his struggle to find life’s meaning: ‘Invest your humanity in the direct service of humanity’.

Your generosity has been admirable and I hope that this work will play some role in bringing about a healthier future for all young people. I would like to thank my supervisor Professor Daniel Hermens, for the incredibly valuable advice and support you have given me over the past few years. Your guidance has extended way beyond this thesis to other areas of academic life that will certainly stay with me forever. Thank you for always reminding me that the map is the treasure—it always provided a sense of composure that inspired discovery and creativity. To Professor Ian Hickie, you have been an inspirational mentor whose passion and genuine interest in making a difference for young people with mental health disorders has been a constant motivation. I have thoroughly enjoyed working with you both, and look forward to continuing our work in the future.

  • Calls for Special Australian of the Year Award for Our Nation's Health Workers
    Media Release Public Health Association of Australia 29 July 2020 Calls for special Australian of the Year Award for our nation’s health workers As Australia continues to battle our biggest-ever health crisis, The Public Health Association of Australia (PHAA) is calling for the Prime Minister to consider a special one-off award to recognise the life-saving work of our nation’s front-line health care workers and public health workers. Nominations for the 2021 Australian of the Year Awards close this week (Friday 31 July), and each year thousands of worthy individuals are nominated for going above and beyond in their chosen field or pursuits. PHAA CEO, Terry Slevin, says the events of the past six months have demonstrated the incredibly selfless work of the many thousands of people who have turned up for work every day – putting their own lives on the line in many cases – to help save the lives of so many fellow Australians. ‘It is in times like these that we see the best of people. People who dedicate their lives to the wellbeing of others in these times of terrible distress and tragic loss,’ Mr Slevin said. ‘The majority of our health workforce are not highly-paid. Few seek recognition or reward. They make so many personal sacrifices to keep us safe and well. And in the process, many hundreds have themselves succumbed to COVID-19,’ Mr Slevin said. ‘Our public health workers deserve a significant acknowledgement – the tireless work this year by contact tracers, researchers, epidemiologists, outbreak investigators and policy experts has been invaluable.

On the 5th anniversary the Battle of Amiens – 8 August, 1923 – he was asked to say a few words at our Club meeting. The minutes record his brief commentary on the extraordinary outcome of his planning and execution leading to the end of the war in less than 100 days from 0808. His contribution to Victoria, Australia and the world community is legend. His counsel to all, especially to students, was: "Adopt as your fundamental creed that you equip yourself for life not solely for your own benefit but for the benefit of the whole community" He is our greatest Australian by any measure. The Rotary Club of Melbourne agreed in 2010 to award the Monash Medal each year to an outstanding Australian for her/his contribution to the Australian Community and beyond. General Sir John Monash was the first Australian Commander of Australian Forces in World War 1 and the innovative planner for Allied Forces at The Battle of Amiens (0808). He is considered a “Significant Australian” for his contribution to the community before, during and after WW1. The Monash Medal is awarded by Rotary Melbourne to an outstanding Australian who has made a significant contribution to the Australian community. The criteria are Leadership, Integrity and Service – which are three of the five core values of Rotary.
