SUMMARY:Report Launch - Essential Connections - The Internet as an Essential Service
DESCRIPTION:This report from Anglicare Australia will explore how poverty limits access to the internet and online services\, and conversely\, how this lack of access can worsen poverty. As governments have come to take internet access for granted\, more and more services now depend on this access. In Essential Connections\, Anglicare Australia calls for the internet to be treated and regulated as an essential service similar to water and electricity.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Play\, Participation & Poverty
DESCRIPTION:Play\, participation & poverty:\n– How our policies can create fairer\, healthier futures for children & young people \nWith Anti-Poverty Week and Children’s Week both falling in October\, NAPCAN is taking a look at the important overlap between the themes of the two weeks: child poverty and play. \nThis fresh conversation will build on what we already know… that:\n– activities like outdoor play\, organised sport\, dance and drama outside of school are good for the future health of all children\n– the benefits are greatest for young people who commonly have the least access to these activities (ie from lower-income families)\n– our policies have the power to remove many of the barriers that lock people out of opportunities to play and participate\n– fantastic local examples are providing insight into simple smart investments that are creating fairer\, more protective communities for children. \nWe’ll hear from passionate researchers and advocates on the topic:\n– Dr Alex O’Donnell from the University of Tasmania will share his research about how extracurricular activities benefit children and young people\, including new research about impacts on mental health\n– Sally Weir from the Department of Territory Families\, Housing and Communities\, Northern Territory Government and Rachel Fosdick\, the Board Secretary and Founder of Palmerston and Regional Basketball Association\, will talk about the Palmerston Youth Activities Programs and the benefits that are being seen when young people are connected to activities in fair and equal ways.\n– Hyahno Moser founder of the Australian Institute of Play\, will share his decades of experience promoting access to outdoor neighbourhood play including in organisations such as Nature Play and Logan Together\, Qld. \nThis will be an engaging conversation for anyone who works with children or youth\, or who is interested in creating smart evidence-based policies (including at federal\, state\, local levels) to give every child in every community a fair go. \nMonday 23 October 2023\n2pm AEDT\n1pm AEST\n12.30pm NT \nRegister here\nhttps://napcan-org-au.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_14gCPEs-T0CZ8P99M2u5Ew

SUMMARY:Ending Child Poverty in Australia - systemic and practice-based solutions
DESCRIPTION:Please join this special Brotherhood of St Laurence BSL Talks webinar on what can be done to end child poverty in Australia.\nChild poverty remains stubbornly high across Australia. One in six children (16.6%) are growing up in poverty in Australia\, which is higher than the general rate for adults (12.7%). There is a great deal of research on how this negatively impacts children\, so what can be done to address this?  \nHear from Professor Sharon Goldfeld (Murdoch Children’s Research Institute) and Myra Geddes (Goodstart)\, along with a person with lived experience of child poverty. In conversation with Brotherhood of St Laurence Executive Director Travers McLeod\, they will explore the importance of the new Early Years Strategy and how access to high quality early childhood education can help break cycles of disadvantage.

SUMMARY:Life Course Centre Seminar Series: How does social position shape health and wealth across the life-course?
DESCRIPTION:There are two broad ‘social facts’ across societies that are usually analysed separately but which are\, in reality\, intimately connected: the inverse association between social and economic position (SEP) and health (known as the ‘social gradient in health‘) and the strong association between family environment and a child’s subsequent educational and occupational attainment (known as the ‘reproduction of social position’). Rather than being separate issues\, these stylised facts actually share a common origin in a process which I term ‘embodiment’ where individual physiology and psychology come to embody socio-structural position. Embodiment shapes individual health and life chances and through this\, forges societal inequalities in health and social position across social groups. Using the work of Pierre Bourdieu and evidence from longitudinal studies from across the life course\, the seminar will explore the mechanisms through which social and economic environment shapes us and the policy implications of this. \nRichard Layte is a Professor of Sociology. Much of his work stems from a core interest in the structure of social and economic stratification in modern societies and its impact on individual life-chances\, health and well-being. His research examines the fundamental processes which influence the distribution of health and well-being in societies and how these are shaped by political economy and the structure and functioning of health care systems. He has a particular interest in improving understanding of how family background influences child health and development and the impact this has on the child’s educational outcomes\, adult health and life expectancy. Recent work has examined whether the ‘Great Recession’ in Ireland had an effect on child health and development (the short answer is that it did in several very important ways)\, the pathways and mechanisms through which these effects occurred and the implications of this for life course models of health and well-being. He has a keen interest in the intersection of social\, psychological and biological science and works with colleagues across a range of disciplines.

SUMMARY:Rosalie Rendu Forum 2022
DESCRIPTION:Climate Justice: working together for a more equitable and sustainable future \nOur climate is changing dramatically. Over the last few years\, our communities have endured more frequent and severe weather events including devastating floods\, droughts\, bushfires and heatwaves. As St Vincent de Paul Society NSW members\, volunteers and staff are on hand to help people in our communities during major emergencies\, and walk alongside people as they recover and rebuild their lives. As each disaster unfolds\, we have seen more clearly how it is marginalised people and communities who are being impacted the most. How then should we respond to the challenges of climate change to avoid widening inequality\, and build resilience amongst those most at risk? \nJoin us for our annual Rosalie Rendu Forum on 20 October 2022 to hear from academic experts and those who’ve lived through recent disasters\, and discuss what’s needed to avoid the worst injustices of climate change\, and better protect those more likely to feel its impact. \nThe 2022 Rosalie Rendu Forum will be held online as a webinar\, however we encourage you to come together within your own communities to hold satellite events across New South Wales. Webinar details will be emailed to registered participants prior to the event. \nTo register\, please visit: https://rosalierendu2022.eventbrite.com.au \nPlease note that by registering for the Rosalie Rendu Form 2022\, you agree to receive updates and information about the St Vincent de Paul Society NSW and our social justice work.

SUMMARY:Poverty & Keeping Children Safe – in conversation with Professor Brigid Featherstone (UK)
DESCRIPTION:Note event runs 3-4pm AEDT\, 2-3pm QLD time \nThis Anti-Poverty Week looks at how poverty impacts the opportunities and outcomes of children and young people. We know that poverty affects far too many Australian children and families\, diminishing their lives now and in the future. As one of the wealthiest countries in the world\, it’s just not right that 1 in 6 of our children grow up in poverty. \nIn this conversation we have Professor Brigid Featherstone\, from the University of Huddersfield\, UK talking about groundbreaking research from the UK and other countries that shows how poverty and inequality impact the context in which child abuse and neglect occurs and how it is responded to by different systems\, including those that are meant to be providing families with support. \nWhat can we learn from the UK and other countries\, to help every child in every community have a fair go? \nMany studies have found that poverty and inequality is a large contributory factor to children being in contact with the child protection system. Professor Featherstone and colleagues say that ‘crucially many of the issues that are dealt with as individualised issues in child protection such as mental health difficulties\, substance misuse difficulties and drug and alcohol problems are all much more prevalent in unequal societies. However\, such socially generated issues are dealt with within an individual frame in child protection. They are reduced to issues of choice\, motivation or character\, which is an inadequate frame.’ \nProfessor Featherstone suggests it is time to tell the important story that: \nThere are inequalities in children’s chances of living safely within their families.\nThese inequalities are directly related to deprivation and other forms of inequality such as in physical and mental health.\nAnti-poverty strategies need to be joined up with child protection strategies locally and nationally.\nThe social determinants of many of the harms experienced by individuals and within families need to be recognised\, understood and tackled.\nSocial and collective strategies need to be integrated with practices directed at individual families.\nTo protect children and promote their welfare we need to focus on the contexts in which they live with their families.\nProfessor Featherstone will also share her knowledge about how Covid-19 has impacted these issues and what are the next steps for children and families.

SUMMARY:Conference on Women's Safety and Financial Security
DESCRIPTION:Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) is the most common form of violence women of all backgrounds experience. Despite the varied policy initiatives introduced in recent years\, domestic violence rates in Australia and around the world remain stubbornly high. Thus\, there is much to learn and do in order to achieve The National Plan’s goal that “Australian women and their children live free from violence in safe communities”. \nThe overarching goal of this conference is to consider solutions to the social problem of gendered violence with some emphasis on the role that women’s economic and financial security can play. It will feature academic speakers from many different fields of expertise as well as a policy/industry panel discussion covering topics ranging from labour market outcomes\, gender inequality\, and financial abuse to the legal and political determinants of Intimate Partner Violence.  See here for program.
