Farmers on the frontline
Farmers are on the frontline of extreme weather events and experience many farming and wellbeing impacts. While farmers are dependent on the land for their livelihood, wider society depends on farmers for food, fibres and employment opportunities.

Study protocol - resilience in individuals and families coping with the impacts of alcohol related injuries in remote indigenous communities
Long term effects of the AMPs are as yet unknown and only fragmented attempts to look at the impact of injury related to alcohol have been conducted. A well-structured research program that explores the long-term impact of alcohol related injuries in these communities will help inform policy development to capture the current situation and so that appropriate benchmarking can occur.The project has been approved by the James Cook University Human …
Study Protocol - Alcohol Management Plans (AMPs) in remote indigenous communities in Queensland
This evaluation will report on the impacts of the original aims for AMPs, what impact they have had on Indigenous residents and service providers. A central outcome will be the establishment of relevant databases describing the parameters of the changes seen. This will permit comprehensive and rigorous surveillance systems to be put in place and provided to communities empowering them with the best credible evidence to judge future policy and pro…
