About Reclink Australia Reclink Australia is a not-for-profit organisation whose aim is to enhance the lives of people experiencing disadvantage or facing significant barriers to participation, through providing new and unique sports, specialist recreation and arts programs, and pathways to employment opportunities. We target some of the community’s most vulnerable and isolated people; at risk youth, those experiencing mental illness, people with a disability, the homeless, people tackling alcohol and other drug issues and social and economic hardship. As part of our unique hub and spoke network model, Reclink Australia has facilitated cooperative partnerships with a membership of more than 220 community, government and private organisations. Our member agencies are committed to encouraging our target population group, under-represented in mainstream sport and recreational programs, to take that step towards improved health and self-esteem, and use Reclink Australia’s activities as a means of engagement for hard to reach population groups. ANNUAL REPORT 2016-17 3 Why We Exist From the streets of St Kilda Building resilience and a sense of community, Reclink Australia believes and Kings Cross, to the that sport and the arts are the perfect public housing estates of vehicles to improve the lives of those Adelaide and Canberra and experiencing complex disadvantage the remote communities and social exclusion. of the Northern Territory, We believe that everyone has the Reclink Australia champions right to a positive identity and a social network.

  • Submission to Senate Inquiry Inquiry Into Current and Future Impacts of Climate Change on Housing, Buildings and Infrastructure
    A group of concerned Engineers and Scientists Submission to Senate Inquiry Inquiry into current and future impacts of climate change on housing, buildings and infrastructure August 2017 About Us We are a group of concerned engineers and scientists. The professional interests of our group include the planning, design and operation of potable and irrigation water supply, wastewater and stormwater systems and in the planning, design and operation of other infrastructure that may be exposed to risks from inundation by stormwater and flooding. Our planning and design work considers how we can make infrastructure operate in a robust and resilient manner across the spectrum of hydro-climatic conditions that are likely to be encountered, which often leads us to a particular focus on the extreme wet and dry ends of this range. The views that we have provided in this submission are our own and do not necessarily represent the views of our employers or other organisations that we may be affiliated with.

  • Chief Executive's Report
    CHIEF EXECUTIVE’S REPORT research to industry and students.The White Paper on research training offers some good initiatives that should help improve research training, but fails to provide the additional funds so desperately needed to replace ageing infrastructure, retain and attract top quality staff and make postgraduate work attractive to students. As the World becomes an ever more competitive information society this dumbing down of Australia is inexplicable and dangerous. It is even more puzzling when one realises that so many other countries with which we compete are dramatically increasing their investment in science and research. The Centre continues to be an exciting and vibrant organisation, committed to making a difference. This comes about because of the energy, enthusiasm and talent of the staff and graduate students who have a commitment to collaborative research that can be used by the water industry. The good will of so many people has been critical in getting us through this start-up phase. Special thanks must go to our Board and in particular our Chairman, Dr John Langford. Dr Langford has not only led the Board with distinction, but provided much wise counsel to me as Chief Executive. Board members have been able to provide wise and effective governance for the Centre as an organisation committed to improving the waterways of Australia. Professor Peter Cullen Chief Executive 10 CRCFE Annual Report 1999–2000 1 STRUCTURE AND MANAGEMENT STRUCTURE AND MANAGEMENT The management of the Cooperative Research Centre for Freshwater Ecology is designed to maximise the strengths of its member organisations. It does this by facilitating collaboration between staff across sites and research programs, and emphasising education, communication and knowledge exchange.

  • Water Futures for South Australia
    Flinders Research Centre for Coastal and Catchment Environments Schultz Oration 16 November 2007 Confronting Water Scarcity: Water Futures for South Australia Peter Cullen Adelaide Thinker in Residence, 2004 Introduction In 2004 I had the pleasure of living in Adelaide as Thinker in Residence, and was able to talk with many people about water, always a matter of great interest to South Australians. In my Thinker’s report to the people of Adelaide I said “The stark situation is that Adelaide is facing a squeeze on its available water, and that it would be prudent for the state to be considering how it will meet this demand, especially if additional water is either not available from the River Murray, or more likely is excessively saline for domestic use. Contingency planning should be underway for a situation when the River Murray cannot sustain the city.” This situation has now arisen. The MDBC Drought Contingency report last month showed salinity levels at Morgan had already almost doubled. While keeping them within drinking water levels is a management priority that guides releases from upstream storages, there is little water available and SA is not getting its normal MDB entitlement due to lack of water. Let me commend the MDBC for its drought reports available on its web site. But unless there is significant rain in the upper catchments there is every likelihood that salinity levels will make water in the Murray unsuitable for drinking early next year, and the rising salinity is likely to lead to fish kills and other water quality problems in the Lower River and Lakes.

  • Annu Al Report
    Peter Cullen Trust: Annual Report 19–20 19— 20 ANNUAL REPORT ANNUAL A Our Inspiration Professor Peter Cullen The late Professor Peter Cullen AO (1943-2008) was a water scientist with a superb capacity to synthesise and communicate complex ideas in a simple, clear way to local communities, policy makers and politicians. Peter made an enormous contribution to the management of water resources in Australia and was instrumental in elevating the need for water reform to a topic of national debate. He was highly influential in Australian government decisions to invest at unprecedented levels in the National Action Plan for Salinity and Water Quality, the National Water Initiative, and the National Plan for Water Security. Our Patron The Reverend Vicky Cullen The Trust acknowledges and thanks our Patron, the Reverend Vicky Cullen, for her generous and ongoing support. Vicky has been an outstanding advocate for her late husband’s work, a regular speaker and VIP at Trust events and a generous donor over many years.
