It reported January 1889 (Figure 2). that “yesterday was the continuation of a period of fierce heat, of which Mr Baracchi (Government Astronomer of Victoria 1900-1915) will not yet prophesy the end … (and that) the outlook for today is worse than the memory of yesterday. Yesterday was hot; today will probably be hotter.” It was hotter - The Mildura Cultivator of Saturday 13th January 1906 reported a top temperature to 9am 7th January of 123.5°F (50.8°C).

  • Shepparton, Victoria
    Full version of case study (3 of 3) featured in the Institute for the Study of Social Change’s Insight Report Nine: Regional population trends in Tasmania: Issues and options. Case study 3: Shepparton, Victoria Prepared by Institute for the Study of Social Change Researcher Nyree Pisanu Shepparton is a region in Victoria, Australia with a total population of 129,971 in 2016 (ABS, 2019). The Shepparton region includes three local government areas, including Greater Shepparton, Campaspe and Moira. In 2016, the regional city of Shepparton-Mooroopna had a population of 46,194. The Greater City of Shepparton had a population of 65,078 in 2018, with an average growth rate of 1.14% since 2011. The median age in Shepparton is 42.2 and the unemployment rate is 5.7%. In 2016, There were more births than deaths (natural increase= 557) and in-migration exceeded out- migration (net migration = 467). Therefore, natural increase is driving Shepparton’s population growth (54%). Economic profile The Shepparton region is located around 180kms north of Melbourne (Goulburn Broken Catchment Management Authority, 2016). The region is known as the Shepparton Irrigation Region as it is located on the banks of the Goulburn river, making it an ideal environment for food production (Goulburn Broken Catchment Management Authority, 2016). Shepparton’s top three agricultural commodities are sheep, dairy and chickens (ABS, 2019). The region is at the heart of the ‘food bowl of Australia’, also producing fruit and vegetables. The region also processes fruit, vegetables and dairy through large processing facilities for both consumption and export (Regional Development Victoria, 2015).

    DROPPING OFF THE EDGE 2015 Moe 30 October 2015 Julie Prideaux, ED Advocacy and Strategic Comms Jesuit Social Services Andrew Yule, GM Strategic Comms Jesuit Social Services Adrian Beavis – Report co-author OUTLINE OF TODAY’S PROGRAM • History of this report • Overview of key findings • Discussion • Examples from other communities • Our advocacy position • LUNCH ABOUT OUR ORGANISATIONS Jesuit Social Services We work to build a just society where all people can live to their full potential - by partnering with community to support those most in need and working to change policies, practices, ideas and values that perpetuate inequality, prejudice and exclusion. Catholic Social Services Australia We represent a national network of 59 Catholic social service organisations that provide direct support to more than one million Australians each year. We develop social welfare policies, programs and other strategic responses that work towards the economic, social and spiritual well-being of the Australian community. WHY WE COMMISSIONED THIS RESEARCH • The 2007 Dropping off the Edge Report (and 1999, 2004) led to Governments committing to a place based approach and the establishment of the National Social Inclusion Board. • We received many requests for updating the data to provide a better evidence base. • We cannot and should not turn away from the challenge of persistent and entrenched disadvantage. • We hold hope that the young people in these communities will have a better outlook and life opportunities. Findings from the research Adrian Beavis GENERAL PERSPECTIVE • Where an accumulation of problems makes a serious impact upon the wellbeing of residents of a disadvantaged area, locality-specific measures may be needed to strengthen the community and supplement general social policy.
