However, these successes have largely failed to translate into Indigenous health outcomes. Given the continued dominance of a colonial imagination, little research exists that values Indigenous perspectives, knowledges and practice in health promotion. This thesis contributes to addressing this knowledge gap. An ethnographic study of health promotion practice was undertaken within an Indigenous-led health promotion team, to learn how practitioners negotiated tensions of daily practice. -

Victoria Beckham: Coming to America
GOOD FRIDAY NRL DOUBLE-HEADER BULLDOGS VS RABBITOHS & BRONCOS VS TITANS LIVE AND FREE ON IMPARJA Viewers are set for an epic Easter weekend of NRL action, starting when Nine’s Wide World of Sports gives the rugby league faithful a blockbuster Good Friday double- header. At 3.30pm AEST tomorrow, Imparja presents LIVE and FREE, across the nation, the Bulldogs- Rabbitohs clash at ANZ Stadium – their traditional Easter showdown. This is a game for both clubs to confirm their premiership credentials after an up-and-down start to the season. Nine’s NRL expert Brad Fittler says: “I look forward to this game every year because it is always a pretty spiteful clash. I think it has a lot to do with English internationals James Graham of the Bulldogs and Sam Burgess of the Rabbitohs going up against each other. For some reason it brings out the best in them. “Two years ago this game boiled over and it wouldn’t surprise me if it happens again. The Doggies have had a resurrection of their own in the last two weeks and shifted Brett Morris to fullback, which I think is a good move by coach Des Hasler.” Fittler’s player to watch is Cody Walker: “He’s been doing it all, setting up tries and scoring tries. He has stepped up since Greg Inglis suffered a long-term knee injury in round one and he has really impressed me, so expect more of the same on Good Friday.” After the full time whistle in Sydney, Imparja will take viewers to Suncorp Stadium in Brisbane for the local derby between the Broncos and Titans from 7.30pm AEST. -
