Winnunga AHS Opening Times 21 Staff Profiile 22 I am also very pleased to be able to announce that as a result of the major efficiencies that we have been able to achieve since moving from an essentially part time GP practice to employing full time GPs, and with the support of a Capital Health Network Grant, Winnunga AHS is able to expand the opening hours of the service. Winnunga AHS is now open from 9am until 8pm Monday to Friday. These expanded hours provide extra flexibility for our clients. We are able to provide this additional service due of the outstanding work of Dr Nadeem, his team of dedicated doctors and our hard working staff.

Aboriginal The Government proposes to establish two separate working parties to advance the Health implementation of the recommendations. Winnunga AHS will be a member of each of Service be the working parties. integrated The Government has announced that firstly it will establish a ‘high-level implementation into the working group’ comprised of representatives of a number of Government agencies and the community sector, ‘to oversee and drive the implementation of the provision of recommendations’. health care at the AMC in It also proposes to establish a further group comprising ACT Health, ACT Corrective Services and Winnunga AHS to oversee the implementation of Recommendation 5. order to introduce its Recommendation 5 provides: ‘That Winnunga Nimmityjah Aboriginal Health Service be integrated into the provision of health care at the AMC in order to introduce its holistic holistic model model of care to Indigenous detainees’. of care to Winnunga AHS believes this to be the most significant recommendation in the report, in Indigenous terms of the potential to produce the sort of cultural change that Philip Moss recognised detainees’. as central to meeting the multifaceted and often complex array of health and other issues that many Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people experience. While Winnunga AHS is happy to participate in working groups established to implement the Moss Report recommendations, it will be insisting that each of the recommendations be implemented as intended by Philip Moss. In respect of Recommendation 5, for instance, Mr Moss made his intentions in relation to the recommendation crystal clear in the body of the report. The Government has, in its response to the Report stated unequivocally that it has agreed in whole to the recommendation. Winnunga AHS will therefore, work with the Government in facilitating the implementation of the Recommendation and will be looking to ensure that it is implemented in whole and as intended. Fact: Mr Rattenbury said: "This is an important report which warrants deep consideration by Government, particularly as it addresses operations across several directorates," as he released Philip Moss’s report into the Treatment in Custody of Steven Freeman.

Winnunga AHS is conscious of the strong interest of the local Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community as well as Narrabundah residents in seeing not only details of the extended negotiations over the Oval but progress in returning the Oval to community control and use as soon as possible. Winnunga Winnunga AHS has at the request of the ACT Government, commissioned consultancy has also proposals from Canberra based planning companies, for the development of a concept made a plan for the Boomanulla Oval site along with a financial assessment of the potential land uses and a community consultation strategy. submission to the ACT The ACT Government is currently giving consideration to those proposals and subject to the outcome of that consideration it is hoped the necessary strategic planning can be Government commenced and the future governance and administrative arrangements for seeking Boomanulla Oval finalised. funding of While therefore, Winnunga AHS remains in negotiations with the ACT Government $3.5 million in about the future management of Boomanulla Oval and is hopeful that the proposed the upcoming new management arrangements can be put in place without any further undue delay. In ACT budget this regard Winnunga AHS has also made a submission to the ACT Government seeking funding of $3.5 million in the upcoming ACT budget for the restoration of the Oval and for the replacement of the condemned change rooms, toilets and club house on the site. There restoration of is a concern that if this funding request is not met, the earliest that Boomanulla Oval the Oval... could be made fit for use would be 2020.

The inquiry is viewed by many policy makers and scholars as an important source of knowledge regarding the post-colonial lives of Indigenous people. It began as an investigation into Indigenous deaths in custody, but its scope was later broadened to encompass a wide range of matters affecting Indigenous Australians. There have been numerous criticisms made about the way the investigation was conducted and about the effectiveness and appropriateness of the recommendations made. Of particular relevance to this thesis are those criticisms that have highlighted the failure of the RCIADIC to consider the problems confronting Indigenous women. It has been claimed that although problems such as family violence and the sexual abuse of Indigenous women by police were acknowledged by both the RCIADIC and other scholars as having a significant impact upon the lives of Indigenous women, the RCIADIC failed to address these and other gender-specific problems.

  • Reclaiming the Kaurna Language: a Long and Lasting Collaboration in an Urban Setting
    Vol. 8 (2014), pp. 409-429 http://nflrc.hawaii.edu/ldc/ http://hdl.handle.net/10125/4613 Series: The Role of Linguists in Indigenous Community Language Programs in Australia1 Reclaiming the Kaurna language: a long and lasting collaboration in an urban setting Rob Amery University of Adelaide A long-running collaboration between Kaurna people and linguists in South Australia be- gan in 1989 with a songbook. Following annual community workshops and the estab- lishment of teaching programs, the author embarked on a PhD to research historical sources and an emerging modern language based on these sources. In response to numer- ous requests for names, translations and information, together with Kaurna Elders Lewis O’Brien and Alitya Rigney, the author and others formed Kaurna Warra Pintyandi (KWP) in 2002. It is a monthly forum where researchers, and others interested in Kaurna lan- guage, can meet with Kaurna people to discuss their concerns. KWP, based at the Univer- sity of Adelaide, is not incorporated and attendance of meetings is voluntary. The com- mittee has gained a measure of credibility and respect from the Kaurna community, gov- ernment departments and the public and has recently signed a Memorandum of Under- standing with the University of Adelaide. However, KWP and the author sit, uneasily at times, at the intersection between the University and the community. This paper explores the nature of collaboration between Kaurna people and researchers through KWP in the context of reliance on historical documentation, much of which is open to interpretation. Linguistics provides some of the skills needed for interpretation of source materials.

  • CITIZENSHIP: LET’S TALK RECOGNITION South Australian Education Pack FOREWORD
    CITIZENSHIP: LET’S TALK RECOGNITION South Australian Education Pack FOREWORD Australia has a unique human history. Aboriginal and Torres and Strait Islander peoples, “ as the oldest continuing culture in human history, lived here as the traditional custodians of the land and water for over 55,000 years. They expressed, and continue to practise, their beliefs through music, art, dance, song and story-telling about the “lore” that governed their social connections and their relationship to the land and water. Generations cared for the land and water until it was colonised by the British a mere 220 years ago. At that time, there were about a million Aboriginal people, comprising approximately 270 language and cultural groups. The British brought to Australia their understanding of citizenship with no regard to the existing Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander systems for maintaining social order, language, culture or their traditional ties with the land and water. On 13 February 2008 an important historical page was turned when Prime Minister Kevin Rudd apologised on behalf of the Australian Government for the past mistreatment of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples who were part of the Stolen Generations. At the same time, he honoured their culture and traditions. This acknowledgement was an important and vital step in recognition of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and righting some of the wrongs of the past. The theme of this Education Pack “Citizenship: Let’s Talk Recognition” explores clashes of cultures, the shaping of citizenship systems and the special place that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples have in Australia as the traditional custodians of the land and water.

  • The Coming of the White People: a Broken Trust
    Chapter One The coming of the white people: a broken trust …the past is never fully gone. It is absorbed into the present and the future. The present plight, in terms of health, employment, education, living conditions and self-esteem, of so many Aborigines must be acknowledged as largely flowing from what happened in the past [...] the new diseases, the alcohol and the new pressures of living were all introduced. Sir William Deane, Governor-General, Inaugural Lingiari Lecture, 1996.(Lingiari and Deane 1996:p20) Introduction This chapter will examine the history of the past two hundred plus years for indicators from which determinants of the poor health Aboriginal peoples experience today will be summarised. It will take the reader on a journey through time. Although the selection of events is a subjective one, it will allow the reader to consider the nature of the impacts of invasion on Aboriginal peoples. There are three core facts that constitute the common experience of Australia’s First Peoples. • They were invaded. • They were dispersed from their land. • They endured indescribable suffering in the wake of introduced disease. A discussion of these three factors opens this chapter in the context of the arrival of the First Fleet in 1788. It must be remembered that the arrival of Europeans resulted in similar consequences throughout the entire country. In the first place, however, it is imperative for Settler or Migrant Australians to begin to understand the enduring relationship between Land and Aboriginal peoples, the interrelatedness of the people themselves, and in turn, the importance of these relationships to wellness relationships that will be further discussed later in this work.
