    Open AccessStella Nordhagen, Mahamadou Tankari et al.ARTICLEFood Policy2026

    Policy coherence is widely recognised as essential for achieving food systems transformation, but attempts to assess food systems policy coherence have been limited to date in terms of their scope of topics and geographies and lack of comparable methods. This paper introduces the Food Systems Policy Coherence (FSPC) Diagnostic Tool and uses it to analyse food systems policy coherence across 10 low- and middle-income countries in Africa and Asia t…

    At the turn of the twentieth century, town planning and public health ideals coalesced, with health and environmental reformers working in concert to promote goals of healthy and sanitary towns for all.

    As supplies of COVID-19 vaccines become available to LMICs, countries need to prepare to efficiently roll out the vaccine, encourage uptake among eligible groups and respond to potential community concerns. Lessons from the implementation of these three vaccines that targeted adults in LMICs can be used to inform best practice for COVID-19 and other epidemic vaccination campaigns

  • Lost landscapes of healing

    Julie Collins, Susan Avey et al.ARTICLELandscape Research2016Cited by: 2References: 25

    Therapeutic landscapes feature prominently in contemporary discourse as they relate to mental health and well-being. Yet this engagement belies the long history of such settings in the therapeutic regimen for those with mental illness. Notable here are the asylum landscapes of the nineteenth century which included airing courts, ornamental gardens, orchards, vegetable plots and recreational grounds aimed at providing meaningful activity for inhab…

  • Climate Discourse and the Architectural Style Debates on Adelaide’s Nineteenth-Century Public Buildings

    Julie CollinsARTICLEHistory Australia2015

    Climate was frequently invoked as a rationale for architectural design during the nineteenth century. This article examines the way climate discourse was used in architectural debates about appropriate styles for public buildings in the South Australian colony. In Adelaide the climate was defined as Mediterranean and consequently that region was looked to for architectural precedents. It will be demonstrated that architects in Adelaide used this …

  • The Future of Public–Private Partnership in Child Welfare

    Julie Collins, Myles Edwards et al.ARTICLEJournal of Public Child Welfare2012Cited by: 4References: 5

    The child welfare system operates as a joint endeavor of the public and private sectors, while in each state the roles of the sectors and the functioning of their relationship varies across a continuum. The system and the sectors operating within it face both facilitators and challenges as they face a future of serving children and families. In this article, leaders from national organizations with differing constituencies who operate as stakehol…

  • Small Children Dictate Home Plan’

    Julie CollinsARTICLEAustralian Historical Studies2009Cited by: 1

    Open plan living spaces have become ubiquitous in Australian housing today. These spaces gained popularity during the 1950s and 1960s, yet the reasons behind their enthusiastic adoption by many post-war families have remained under-explored. A determining factor in the introduction and acceptance of open plan living may be traced to dominant cultural ideas about the family and the role of the child, which not only allowed these architectural shif…

  • Monitored Lives

    Julie CollinsARTICLEPracticing Anthropology2001

    My PhD research focuses on the manifestations of Aboriginal relationships to land in New South Wales. My research at first was very much centered on the specific issue of Aboriginal ‘involvement’ in five newly nominated Aboriginal owned national parks to be jointly managed with the NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service under the National Parks and Wildlife (Aboriginal Ownership) Amendment Act (NSW) 1996
