In 1916 on the battlefield of the Somme, from 17th to 20th September 1916, he located and repaired wells in the newly captured village of Flers. This service was performed under continuous shellfire. The report continued with "He has done consistently good work throughout from April to September in France." He also served at Gallipoli. He was killed on 26 July 1917 aged 28 near Ploegsteert. : Throughout the Western Front battlefields there were very few sources of potable 5 Jul 2013 Descendants of Anderina MOUAT Page 1 drinking water due to the intense shelling, mud and dead stock. Early on the troops had seen farmers and peasants collect water from ditches. The locals seemed immune to this practice, but when the troops did the same they went down like flies with all the usual water-borne diseases. Strict warnings followed and the troops were thirsty a lot of the time. Hence it was of paramount importance for the Engineers to locate village wells and clear them of garbage and rubbish dumped in by the retreating Germans, or repair them when they had been blown up.

Location: Steenwerck is a village on the D77 about 6 kilometres south-east of Bailleul, and to the east of the road from Bailleul to Estaires. The Cemetery is situated to the north-east midway between the village and 5 Jul 2013 Descendants of Anderina MOUAT Page 3 the main road from Bailleul to Armentieres and north of the recently built motorway. Historical Information: Steenwerck village remained unharmed during the greater part of the War' but on the 10th April 1918, in the Battles of the Lys, it was captured by the enemy, and it remained in their possession until the beginning of October. The site was chosen for the 2nd Australian Casualty Clearing Station in July 1916, and the original Cemetery (Plot 1 and the earlier rows of Plot II) was made and used by that hospital until April 1918. Trois-Arbres passed into German hands a day later than Steenwerck, after a rearguard defence by the 34th Division. A few further burials were made in the Cemetery after the German retirement at the end of 1918; and after the Armistice graves were brought into it from the battlefields of Steenwerck, Nieppe, Bailleul and Neuve-Eglise. There are now nearly 2,000, 1914-18 war casualties commemorated in this site. Of these, over 400 are unidentified and special memorials are erected to nine soldiers from the United Kingdom and one from Canada, known or believed to be buried among them. Certain graves in Plot III (indicated by the words on the headstones "Buried near this spot") are identified as a group but not individually. The Cemetery covers and area of 5.935 square metres and is enclosed by a concrete curb. The following graveyards were concentrated into Trois-Arbres Cemetery:-. DOUNE CEMETERY, NEUVE- EGLISE, at the Custom House on the road from Neuve-Eglise to Nieppe, containing the graves of 15 soldiers from Canada and four from the United Kingdom who fell in 1915-16. FORTRIE FARM CEMETERY, NEW-EGLISE, 1.6 kilometres West of the hamlet of Le Romarin, containing the graves of 27 soldiers from the United Kingdom who fell in November and December 1914. FACTORY CENETERY, BAC-ST. MAUR. This was a row of graves in Steenwerck commune, in the angle formed by the river Lys, the road from Bac- St.

  • The Influence of Learning on a Tourism Destination Community's Responses
    The influence of learning on a tourism destination community’s responses to the impacts of climate change Thi Duyen Anh Pham Master of Social Planning and Development Bachelor of Science A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2018 School of Business Abstract Climate change presents significant challenges for the sustainability of the tourism sector. Tourism destinations in developing countries have been identified as the most vulnerable to the impacts of climate change; however, little is known about the situation of climate change and the tourism sector in the developing world, despite the relative importance of tourism to the local economies. Building adaptive capacity is important to increase the capability of the local destination community stakeholders to manage the impacts of climate change on their business and on the broader destination. Considerable adaptation research has been conducted; however, adaptation discourses in the tourism sector are still predominantly focused on responding to the predicted impacts of future climate change rather than addressing the underlying factors that affect the vulnerability and adaptive capacity of tourism destinations and local community stakeholders. Recent research in social ecological systems has indicated that learning is an essential aspect of building adaptive capacity. In this context, social learning is emerging as an adaptation approach that addresses issues hindering adaptation, such as a lack of knowledge and awareness, and encourages a proactive response by human systems to climate change. Underpinned by the theories of climate change adaptation and social learning, this research seeks to understand the influence of learning on a destination community’s responses to the impacts of climate change.

    A History of the Askin Government 1965-1975 Paul E. Loughnan BA [History], MA [History] A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of the University of New England October 2013 Dedication This dissertation is dedicated to my family and good friends; Kate, Anthony, Benjamin Samuel, Thea and Mike. I will always be grateful for their patience, encouragement and unswerving support. And I have no doubt that they were instrumental in the completion of this PhD degree. Acknowledgements The debt to my Principal supervisor Dr Tim Battin is immense. At the beginning of the candidateship the circumstances were such that without his concurrence to take me on I would not have been able to undertake and complete this dissertation. At no time did I ever have any reason to doubt his professionalism and his commitment to the academic process. From my PhD experience this approach is essential and engenders the confidence required to complete such a rigorous project. As a result I still retain the belief that it is a privilege to be a candidate in the University’s PhD degree. I acknowledge my debt to the late Dr Mark Hayne who was my first lecturer at UNE when I began my tertiary education as a mature age student. He rekindled my interest in history and encouraged me to undertake research projects. My good fortune continued when Associate Professor Frank Bongiorno arrived at UNE. His professionalism and dedication to history was inspiring. Frank supervised my Masters dissertation which culminated in my PhD candidateship. He continued his commitment and interest in my pursuits by generously allocating time to this dissertation.
