Exploring animal welfare education materials Abstract This document reports a survey of current animal welfare education materials relevant to the red meat industries and available to primary, secondary and tertiary (including TAFE and Vocational Education and Training - VET) students. The survey was informal, yet systematic, using email, telephone, database and internet searches. A number of relevant groups were identified, representing different interests: those that were potential users of animal welfare education resources and/or providers of education and training, and those that were potential producers of animal welfare resources. Both Australian and international sources were searched. The survey found only limited educational resources in animal welfare focussed on the livestock industries. Although they included video, CD ROM, teaching manuals, print and internet publications there was a lack of relevant Australian material that could be presented in the Australian context.

  • Sower. BIBLE SOCIETY AUSTRALIA
    AUTUMN 2021 Sower. BIBLE SOCIETY AUSTRALIA. TO ALL PEOPLE. BY ALL MEANS POSSIBLE. 2 TO ALL PEOPLE. BY ALL MEANS POSSIBLE. elcome to our new look Sower. After listening to your feedback, which was a fantastic mix of positive and not- quite-so about the trial combined magazine of Sower, Eternity and Koorong, we have decided to return to WSower being on its own. The most vocal voices came from our commit- ted Sower readers who felt they weren’t receiving the depth of content that they have always valued regarding Bible Society’s international and Australian projects. I know you are going to love this magazine. Our hope is that you will treasure each edition. Share it with others. Leave it on your coffee table so you can go back to it and so others can also enjoy the stories. While this is a dedicated Sower magazine - introducing you to new pro- jects, reporting back on those you have financially contributed to, and seeking your prayers for the work of Bible Society here in Australia and internationally - we want to also share the good news of Eternity, the writings of CPX and highlights from Koorong’s catalogue. No longer a combined magazine, but a few tasters perhaps? In this edition, our feature article is on an important new project in Rwanda. It will be 30 years in 2024 since the world was shocked by the Rwandan genocide, and not surprisingly there is increasing tension between the Hutus and the Tutsis. This important project seeks to teach important Biblical lessons which will help primary and secondary students learn about forgiveness, reconciliation and healing.

    Leading � rec�very Annual Report 2019–2020 TARONGA ANNUAL REPORT 2019–2020 A SHARED FUTURE � WILDLIFE AND PE�PLE At Taronga we believe that together we can find a better and more sustainable way for wildlife and people to share this planet. Taronga recognises that the planet’s biodiversity and ecosystems are the life support systems for our own species' health and prosperity. At no time in history has this been more evident, with drought, bushfires, climate change, global pandemics, habitat destruction, ocean acidification and many other crises threatening natural systems and our own future. Whilst we cannot tackle these challenges alone, Taronga is acting now and working to save species, sustain robust ecosystems, provide experiences and create learning opportunities so that we act together. We believe that all of us have a responsibility to protect the world’s precious wildlife, not just for us in our lifetimes, but for generations into the future. Our Zoos create experiences that delight and inspire lasting connections between people and wildlife. We aim to create conservation advocates that value wildlife, speak up for nature and take action to help create a future where both people and wildlife thrive. Our conservation breeding programs for threatened and priority wildlife help a myriad of species, with our program for 11 Legacy Species representing an increased commitment to six Australian and five Sumatran species at risk of extinction. The Koala was added as an 11th Legacy Species in 2019, to reflect increasing threats to its survival. In the last 12 months alone, Taronga partnered with 28 organisations working on the front line of conservation across 17 countries.

Packer: The latest Christian traumatised communities The holy scholar resources for you Page 2–4 Page 18–21 Page 33–39 We are all in this together ear Anna, Bronwyn, Graham, Margaret, Beverly, Pete, Miriam, Bruce, Angela, Yvonne, Elizabeth, June, Mike, Harold Dand other friends of Bible Society, Eternity and Koorong, Let me first say ‘Thank You.’ I loved all your comments and ideas for a new name for our new combined magazine. Your contributions were fantastic! Sowing for Eternity. Eternal Seed. Beyond. Given. Trinity. However, the overwhelming consensus was to stick with Bible Society Magazine, as that name says it all. So, welcome to Bible Society Magazine issue 2. We will continue fine-tuning the look and feel of the different sections of our magazine. I mentioned in the last edition about our Staff Devotion on Wednesdays. Over the past few weeks I have been leading a series on culture. In 2 Timothy 1:13, Paul tells Timothy to ‘hold fast the pattern of sound words which you have heard from me, in faith and love which are in Christ Jesus.’ (NKJV) As I spoke to the Bible Society team across Australia, I painted the picture of a patchwork quilt. All the different squares, different pat- terns, can look mismatched or disjointed up close, but when knitted together they form a magnificent cohesive whole. As Christians we are urged to hold fast to the pattern of words which have been laid down, knitted together, in the Bible and by Christian thinkers, theologians, writers, pastors, leaders, friends, over the centuries since Paul wrote that letter.

  • Field & Game Australia and Australian Deer
    RSPCA SUBMISSION 54 BACKGROUND Since forming in 1958, Field & Game Australia (FGA) has been active in wetland conservation; ethical, humane hunting; and clay target shooting sports, and are active in every state and territory of Australia. Historically, hunters in Victoria have led a number of conservation initiatives, developing great knowledge of the flora and fauna that is found in our natural habitat. Hunters funded the purchase and protection of wetland habitats through hunting licence fees in a unique private/public partnership with the government at the time. This created the State Game Reserve system which provides critical breeding sanctuary for native waterbirds, offsetting the loss of habitat from draining, for agricultural and other purposes, and habitat for all wildlife. This network of sanctuaries in Victoria totals 75,000 hectares, with a further 25,000 hectares in South Australia. The Australian Deer Association (ADA) was formed in 1969 to promote the sound management of Australia’s free-ranging wild deer herds. Today ADA has active branches in each State and Territory of Australia. ADA members participate in the active management of wild deer on public and private land throughout Australia, participating in hunting and culling operations, as well as habitat restoration and protection, and wild deer monitoring initiatives. FGA and ADA combined represent the second-largest group of hunters and recreational shooters in Australia. Animal welfare is an important consideration for hunters. Licensed game hunters are aware of, and bound by, the Code of Practice for the Welfare of Animals in Hunting and the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act. The Victorian Hunting Guide, which has been issued annually to all licensed hunters, clearly outlines hunters’ obligations.
