Physiotherapists are underutilised in health-sector responses to gender-based violence
Gender-based violence (GBV) is a major global public health and human rights issue with wide-ranging physical and mental health consequences. Physiotherapists frequently work with populations and conditions plausibly linked to violence exposure, yet little is known about their preparedness to identify and respond to GBV in Spanish-speaking contexts. We conducted a cross-sectional online convenience survey of Spanish-speaking physiotherapists from…
Physical activity levels and associated factors among Rohingya older adults living in the refugee camp in Bangladesh
Physical inactivity increases with age, yet evidence on physical activity (PA) among older adults affected by forced displacement remains scarce, particularly in refugee camp settings. We aimed to assess PA levels and identify associated factors among Rohingya older adults aged ≥60 years living in refugee camps in Southern Bangladesh. A cross-sectional survey was conducted between May and August 2024. PA was assessed using the Physical Activity V…
Barriers and Facilitators to Accessing Preventive Services for Chronic Diseases Among People From Bangladeshi and Nepalese Backgrounds Living in Sydney
BACKGROUND: People from Bangladeshi and Nepalese origin living in Australia experience a disproportionate burden of chronic diseases, such as diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. Although preventive services are essential to reduce the burden of chronic diseases, existing evidence indicates that these communities encounter unique migration, socioeconomic and health system-level challenges that impede their access to existing preventive services …

Staff working in mental health settings are well-positioned to address the issue; however, they often face significant barriers in delivering physical healthcare. The primary aim of this study was to identify important factors that support mental health staff to address the physical health of consumers; the secondary aim was to evaluate the utility of using a …

Pasifika communities in Western Sydney experience significant health disparities, particularly related to chronic diseases such as cardiovascular conditions and diabetes. Physical activity is known to improve both physical and mental health, yet access to culturally responsive physical activity programs for Pasifika communities is limited. This study leveraged expertise from an Advisory Committee to adopt community-based participatory research (C…
Exploring barriers and facilitators to physical activity participation and food security among the Rohingya community living in Australia
Health promotion efforts targeting physical activity and food security require a multifactorial approach which prioritises cultural sensitivity, acknowledges gender roles and expectations, and considers past experiences including the impacts of migration
‘He wants to play football but not available here … ’ Parent perspectives of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander child physical activity and sport participation
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children have higher physical activity participation levels than non-Aboriginal children. However, this trend reverses in adulthood. Data came from the Longitudinal Study of Indigenous Children (LSIC) at age 8–13 years. Using conventional content analysis, interviews with primary caregivers of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children were analyzed to understand current sports and physical activity parti…
Co-designing a Physical Activity Service for Refugees and Asylum Seekers Using an Experience-Based Co-design Framework
People from refugee and asylum seeker backgrounds resettling in Australia often experience intersecting risks for poor mental and physical health. Physical activity can promote better health outcomes, however there are limited programs tailored for this population. Therefore, understanding how to support refugees and asylum seekers to engage in physical activity is crucial. This paper aims to describe how the experience-based co-design (EBCD) pro…
Readiness of Exercise Physiologists, Physiotherapists and Other Allied Health Professionals to Respond to Gender-Based Violence

The readiness of AHPs to identify and respond to GBV is currently unknown. This study aimed to determine the readiness of AHPs to respond to a person who had experienced GBV. Participants completed the modified Physician Readiness to Manage …
