Sugar consumption in Aboriginal children explored from a social practice perspective
Australian Aboriginal children have higher sugar intake and are disproportionately affected by sugar-related diseases such as obesity, diabetes and dental caries than non-Aboriginal children. The intention of this paper was to highlight the need for approaches that can capture the complexity of health practices without reducing them to either individual choice or structural determination. We explore sugar consumption in Aboriginal children from a…
Community‐centred oral healthcare for adults experiencing homelessness in Australia
The objective of the study was to identify whether creating a responsive, respectful and trustworthy environment that provides free dental care for clients who are homeless using volunteer dental professionals was effective in meeting their oral health needs in Fremantle, Western Australia. Qualitative research conducted between October 2018 and August 2019 was guided by a social constructivist paradigm to gather and analyse data. Semi-structured…
Perspectives of Aboriginal women on participation in mammographic screening
The higher participation rates for Aboriginal women in Western Australia than are found for Aboriginal women nationally demonstrate the success of the strategies put in place by BreastScreen WA. These efforts must be supported and existing policies and practices enhanced to address the limitations in the existing program. Only by implementing and evaluating such initiatives and making breast screening programs more accessible to Aboriginal women …
Aboriginal Health Worker perceptions of oral health
Reviewing current models of oral health education and service delivery is needed to reduce oral health disparities between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal Australians. Shifting the discourse from blaming Aboriginal people for their poor oral health to addressing structural factors impacting on optimum oral health choices is important. This includes Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal stakeholders working together to develop and implement policies and pra…
Working Together
Progress has been slow in improving health disparities between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander (Indigenous) Australians and other Australians. While reasons for this are complex, delivering healthcare respectful of cultural differences is one approach to improving Indigenous health outcomes. This paper presents and evaluates an intercultural academic leadership programme developed to support tertiary educators teaching Indigenous health and…
The civic virtue of developmentalism
This paper examines the social licence to operate (SLO) of Western Australia's (WA's) mining industry in the context of the state's ‘developmentalist’ agenda. We draw on the findings of a multi-disciplinary body of new research on the risks and challenges posed by WA's mining industry for environmental, social and economic sustainability. We synthesise the findings of this work against the backdrop of the broader debates on corporate social respo…
The mining boom and Western Australia’s changing landscape
The practices and public reputation of mining have been changing over time. In the past, mining operations frequently stood accused of being socially and environmentally disruptive, whereas mining today invests heavily in ‘socially responsible’ and ‘sustainable’ business practices. Changes such as these can be witnessed internationally as well as in places like Western Australia (WA), where the mining sector has matured into an economic pillar of…

Rural medical marriages
Australie occidentale. Les médecins généralistes étrangers et leurs conjoints dans les zones rurales
Cet article analyse la politique de recrutement des médecins ayant un diplôme étranger pour répondre à la pénurie de professionnels de la santé dans les zones rurales de l'Australie. Il analyse le contexte de maintien de ces médecins dans un environnement social plus vaste, notamment par un examen des conséquences des attentes et expériences de ces médecins et de leurs conjoints
Settling In
Due to difficulties attracting Australian-trained general practitioners to work outside metropolitan areas, many rural communities are recruiting overseas trained doctors to provide medical services. This paper examines the aspirations, challenges and experiences faced by such doctors and their spouses from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds. Ethnographic research examines the factors affecting the settling in process for GPs who h…
The Culture of Safety on Australian Farms
The concept of developing a culture of safety in industry is becoming more important in the prevention of occupational injury and death. Little information is available on the safety culture in farming even though injury and death rates in this industry are some of the highest in Australia. This paper explores the attitudes and beliefs of a small sample of farmers regarding the development of a safety culture and investigates their reluctance to …
Heroes And Fairy Wrens
Increasing numbers of women are entering the medical workforce in western industrialised countries. Many are calling for reform in the workplace by demanding more flexible hours to better balance the demands of work and home. This is particularly relevant in rural locations where limited childcare services are available. Ethnographic research in Western Australia with rural general practitioners examines whether greater numbers of female GPs ente…
