  • Opening Address
    Opening address Andrew Laming MP1 1Federal Member for Bowman, Shadow Parliamentary Secretary for Regional Health Services and Indigenous Health Thanks Leigh for kicking off Plenary One ‘Shaping a Bright Rural Future’—I hope as a warm-up act, Jack Snelling and I do ok. Thanks to this year’s conference convenor Marie Lally, to your Conference Advisory committee and the Organising group. And of course the Tutti Choir for your inspiring intro. Distinguished guests, Jack, South Australian Senator David Fawcett, to Australian professional Colleges, most notably ACRRM, NACCHO and AIDA and RACGP, to AGPN, ANF, Allied Health networks, the RFDS; the physios, the psychs and the physios, the Chiros, Pharmacists the Optoms, the Ambos and paramedics, the Rural nurses, Doctors, Dentists, students and health researchers, to the Australian Health and Hospital Association, CRANAPlus, the CWA, Catholic Health Australia, ICPA, the health consumer groups, Rural HWorkforce, and RH Education Foundation, to the health consulting firms, private sector providers. What a perfect weekend in Australia’s most understated capital city, we are celebrating the work of rural, remote and Aboriginal health professionals. For many of you, rural health’s watershed moment was 1991. Many here today recall the Toowoomba Conference when ‘modern’ rural health was born. You’d agree it provided the foundation for what has been two-decades of uninterrupted advance in the status of (and investment in) rural, remote and Aboriginal health. Much of that momentum creation can be traced back to the AHMAC Rural Health Taskforce AND the Rural Health Support E&T program. Given this is a two yearly event this 11th meeting is as close as it gets to a 21st birthday for rural health.

  • What Killed Australian Cinema & Why Is the Bloody Corpse Still Moving?
    What Killed Australian Cinema & Why is the Bloody Corpse Still Moving? A Thesis Submitted By Jacob Zvi for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the Faculty of Health, Arts & Design, Swinburne University of Technology, Melbourne © Jacob Zvi 2019 Swinburne University of Technology All rights reserved. This thesis may not be reproduced in whole or in part, by photocopy or other means, without the permission of the author. II Abstract In 2004, annual Australian viewership of Australian cinema, regularly averaging below 5%, reached an all-time low of 1.3%. Considering Australia ranks among the top nations in both screens and cinema attendance per capita, and that Australians’ biggest cultural consumption is screen products and multi-media equipment, suggests that Australians love cinema, but refrain from watching their own. Why? During its golden period, 1970-1988, Australian cinema was operating under combined private and government investment, and responsible for critical and commercial successes. However, over the past thirty years, 1988-2018, due to the detrimental role of government film agencies played in binding Australian cinema to government funding, Australian films are perceived as under-developed, low budget, and depressing. Out of hundreds of films produced, and investment of billions of dollars, only a dozen managed to recoup their budget. The thesis demonstrates how ‘Australian national cinema’ discourse helped funding bodies consolidate their power. Australian filmmaking is defined by three ongoing and unresolved frictions: one external and two internal. Friction I debates Australian cinema vs. Australian audience, rejecting Australian cinema’s output, resulting in Frictions II and III, which respectively debate two industry questions: what content is produced? arthouse vs.
