  • Queensland Arts Council Strategic Plan, 2001-2003
    ARTS FACILITATION AND CREATIVE COMMUNITY CULTURE: A STUDY OF QUEENSLAND ARTS COUNCIL by Michael John Richards ADVA, MA. Submitted to the Faculty of Creative Industries at Queensland University of Technology, in support of an application for admission to the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, January 2005. 1 LIST OF KEYWORDS Civil Society Community Arts Community Cultural Development Community Revitalisation Community Engagement Creative Class Creative Industries Cultural Industries Cultural Policy Excellence Elite(s) Knowledge Class Meritocracy Regional Arts 2 ABSTRACT This thesis adopts a Cultural Industries framework to examine how Queensland’s arts council network has, through the provision of arts products and services, contributed to the vitality, health and sustainability of Queensland’s regional communities. It charts the history of the network, its configuration and impact since 1961, with particular focus on the years 2001 - 2004, envisages future trends, and provides an analysis of key issues which may be used to guide future policies and programs. Analysis is guided by a Cultural Industries understanding of the arts embedded in everyday life, and views the arts as a range of activities which, by virtue of their aesthetic and symbolic dimensions, enhance human existence through their impact on both the quality and style of human life. Benefits include enhanced leisure and entertainment options, and educational, social, health, personal growth, and economic outcomes, and other indirect benefits which enrich environment and lifestyle. Queensland Arts Council (QAC) and its network of branches has been a dominant factor in the evolution of Queensland’s cultural environment since the middle of the 20th century. Across the state, branches became the public face of the arts, drove cultural agendas, initiated and managed activities, advised governments, wrote cultural policies, lobbied, raised funds and laboured to realise cultural facilities and infrastructure.

  • 494 JAMES VENTURE MULLIGAN Prospector and Explorer of the North
    494 JAMES VENTURE MULLIGAN Prospector and Explorer of the North [By GLENVILLE PIKE] (Written for the Monthly General Meeting of the His­ torical Society of Queensland, Inc., on 26th April 1951). James Venture Mulligan is a man whose deeds are not known to many. Yet he was probably North Queensland's greatest explorer and prospector—a man who did more than anyone else to open up the vast mineral areas of Cape York Peninsula and the hinter­ land of Cairns. In this paper I propose to tell you, as briefly as I can, about Mulligan's work—briefly because the full story would fiU a book if sufficient time was spent in sorting out the many records and old newspaper re­ ports that survive—relics of the days when Mulligan's discoveries were big news. Mulligan made six expeditions between 1873 and 1876 and on only one of them did he receive financial help from the Government. His arduous journeys were made at his own expense, spurred on only by his urge of discovering something of value to the community, and to open up the then wild Northern lands of which this brave man was so much a part. He was a bom leader of men. In a wider field he could have become Australia's greatest explorer. This year is the seventy-fifth anniversary of Mul­ ligan's discovery of payable gold on the Hodgkinson; the founding of Cairns followed within six months. This October, the anniversary is being celebrated in Cairns in conjunction with the Jubilee of Federation, but few will pause to remember Mulligan as the man who blazed the way for the pioneers of Cairns to foUow.

  • Journeys Into the Rainforest
    2 Study Region: Environmental, Historical and Cultural Background Introduction This chapter presents background information regarding (i) the understanding of the environmental context, (ii) the distinct Aboriginal rainforest culture recorded at the time of European contact, (iii) the outcomes of Aboriginal interactions and negotiations with Europeans over the decades that followed first contact and (iv) the archaeological evidence, to the study area. The first section describes the environmental setting of the rainforest region, and demonstrates that a great level of biodiversity exists in this region. Information from palaeoecological research in the region is summarised to facilitate an appreciation of the climatic and environmental variability of the late Pleistocene and Holocene periods that has impact on human occupation in the region. This is followed by a summary of early European history of the study area and a description of the cultural setting of the study, including a discussion on some of the long-term outcomes of European settlement on Aboriginal people. The chapter concludes with a summary of previous archaeological research conducted in the rainforest region. Environmental setting The Wet Tropics Bioregion of northeast Queensland covers approximately 12,000 square km. It incorporates approximately the area between Rossville and Cardwell in the east and the Atherton- Evelyn Tablelands to the west (Fig. 2.1). The Tablelands are separated from the coastal plains by a mountain range that includes the highest mountain in Queensland, Mt Bartle Frere, at 1,622 m above sea level. The study area is located on the Evelyn Tableland in the southwest corner of the Tablelands (Fig. 2.1).

  • Mareeba Shire Handbook
    MAREEBA SHIRE HANDBOOK An Inventory of the Agricultural Resources and Production of Mareeba Shire, Queensland Queensland Department of Primary Industries September 1978 MAREEBA SHIRE HANDBOOK An Inventory of the Agricultural Resources and Production of Mareeba Shire, Queensland Compiled by: N. T. Currie, District Adviser, Mareeba Edited by: P. L. Lloyd, Extension Officer, Brisbane Published by: Queensland Department of Primary Industries September 1978 FOREWORD The Shire Handbook was conceived in the mid-1960s. A limited number of a series was printed for use by officers of the Department of Primary Industries to assist them in their planning of research and extension programmes. The Handbooks created wide interest and, in response to public demand, it was decided to publish progressively a new updated series. This volume is one of the new series. Shire Handbooks review, in some detail, the environmental and natural resources which affect farm production and people in the particular Shire. Climate, geology, topography, water resources, soils and vegetation are' described. Farming systems are discussed, animal and crop production reviewed and yields and turnoff quantified. The economics of component industries are studied. The text is supported liberally by maps and statistical tables. Shire Handbooks provide important reference material for all concerned with rural industries and rural Queensland. * They serve as a guide to farmers and graziers, bankers, stock and station agents and those in agricultural business. * Provide essential information for regional planners, developers and environmental impact students. * Are a very useful reference for teachers at all levels of education and deserve a place in most libraries. I commend this series to students of agriculture and all whose business is associated with the land and rural people.

  • 2015 RBWH Research Report
    Internal Medicine Services Internal Medicine Services has a diverse and vibrant research culture that is imbedded within our departments and across disciplines. We are proud of the achievements of the staff in Internal Medicine that contribute to the body of knowledge that improves the care provided to our patients. This research covers pure scientific research to translating research outcomes into practice. It is a dynamic time to be in health and specifically at RBWH. Internal Medicine is involved in research collaborations with most academic institutions in Queensland and many of the research endeavours are multidisciplinary and multi-site. Due to the nature of many of our services medicines play a vital role in therapeutic management of our patients. Clinical trials of medicines play an important part of the research of new pharmaceuticals that will eventually be able to be used more broadly for patient treatment. The involvement of the Nuclear Medicine Department in the Herston Imaging Research Facility is exciting and at the cutting edge of diagnostic care. The depth of IMS research work presented at the annual RBWH Health care Symposium is indeed inspiring and one indicator of the extent of research activities throughout the service. Enquiring minds and curiosity will always encourage the best patient care outcomes in our service. Kate Mason Executive Director Internal Medicine Services Sandy Jamieson NursingDirector Internal Medicine Services 6565 Department of Cardiology The cardiology department has a broad investigator-driven research program with a focus on health service research and evaluation. Much of this research has grown from the efforts of clinicians to improve models of care with interdisciplinary collaboration within RBWH and with other centres nationally and internationally.
