Prepare engage process action (Pepa)
Authentically partnering with consumers as co-educators in health students’ education during placements is nuanced, given the diversity of consumers, practice contexts and students. Co-design of educational interventions to address these complexities is required. This research outlines the development of a consumer feedback system created by a co-design team. A co-design team, including a consumer, student, educator, and academic, used design thi…
Racism in maternity care as a determinant of First Nations women's health
First Nations women in Australia continue to experience disproportionately adverse maternal and infant outcomes. The ongoing legacy of colonisation and systemic racism shapes these outcomes. In the Australian Capital Territory (ACT), maternity services remain dominated by Western biomedical approaches that fail to deliver culturally safe and anti-racist care despite national standards that mandate such practices. This qualitative study was conduc…

Reframing healthy food choices
Findings from this study highlight common characteristics of popular healthy eating blogs. Future research into the development of blog guidelines which incorporate the characteristics identified in this study can support dietitians in establishing or contributing to the successful provision of evidence-based nutritional information through blogs
What is healthy eating? A qualitative exploration

Design: An exploratory qualitative study design was employed using semi-structured face-to-face interviews. Convenience sampling was used to recruit participants. Interviews were audio-recorded, transcr…
Interventions Supporting the Social Integration of Refugee Children and Youth in School Communities
Schools function as a primary driver of integration and as a link to resources and assets that promote healthy development. Nevertheless, most research studies on school-based programs are conducted on mainstream students, and school professionals looking to deliver interventions serving refugee students are forced to choose between evidence-based programs designed for the mainstream and developing new programs in the cultural framework of their …
Merging the Religious Congregations and Membership Studies
The decennial religious congregations and membership studies are a popular data source for analyzing local religious composition and diversity, but several methodological challenges hinder merging the datasets for longitudinal analyses. In this paper, we introduce strategies for addressing four of the most serious challenges: religious mergers and schisms, changes in membership standards within certain groups, missing data and changes in county b…
