IN! Wadi Wadi man Vince Kirby has won his legal challenge over the Nyah floodplain engineering project, after the Victorian Government accepted that Traditional Owners were not properly consulted. The real agenda of 'floodplain engineering' is to reduce environmental flows, and it condemns swathes of precious redgum forest to a slow death — now the project cannot proceed under its current plan. Environmental Justice Australia has filed a second case on Vince’s behalf challenging a similar project at Vinifera, four kilometres away. https://www.facebook.com/environmentvictoria/posts/pfbid0vSRKaAmYvFHBfcHfBip4ecXvuK6HQcpmHt7M2HETHgp9zPJg4AHeM86Rw6xJuQfRl

❝ Socialism is a scare word they have hurled at every advance the people have made in the last 20 years. Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security. Socialism is what they called farm price supports. Socialism is what they called bank deposit insurance. Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations. Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. ❞ — Harry S. Truman

NatCORR is excited to share the below news and opportunity for engagement with the Bureau of Meteorology. The BoM is currently developing a new 7-Day Thunderstorm Forecast product, designed to provide earlier and clearer information about potential thunderstorm risks in the days ahead. This initiative has been developed in response to feedback from the Australian community (including the outdoor sector through our engagement with the BoM in the last couple of years!) and we are pleased to see the product progressing through its development phase.
"These are individuals engaged in a political project, the violent implications of which they need to neutralise. Unfortunately, being labelled a “genocide supporter” – an understandably harrowing experience recounted by so many witnesses – is the cost of supporting genocide."
What have we learned? Risk in LOAs - most LOA injuries are minor - LOAs has a low injury incident rate compared to organised sports - LOA sector have effective risk managment strategies in place for high risk activities e.g., high ropes courses, water based activities - most injuries occur in less overtly risky activities e.g, free time, campcraft, walking/running
The 'Big Eight' contributory factors - Activity provider processes - School comms - Parent comms - Program design - Activity leader behaviour and condition - Participant behaviour and condition - Equipment and clothing - Activity environment
Most frequently reported incident contributory factor at each system level.
Injury Patterns - consistent across all years * superficial injuries the most common * lower limbs dominate * hand injuries also common within the dataset * head injuries stable
