Supporting Employment Transitions for People with Intellectual Disabilities
Disability Enterprises have the potential to address employment barriers that people with an intellectual disability experience as they move into open employment. Disability Enterprises are able to facilitate this transition through strategic organisational design, but it is unknown the extent to which organisations are following what could be considered best practice. Utilising a survey and interview approach, we aimed to understand how well org…
Wellbeing and job satisfaction among employees with intellectual disability
Objectives: The workplace is considered one of the key settings in which to promote health and wellbeing. Reviews of workplace health promotion have shown that workplace interventions can positively impact on mental health, nutrition, and physical activity, and can impact positively on economic indicators such as absenteeism. One of the research gaps is workplace health promotion for people with an intellectual disability. This is an important ga…
Mental and social wellbeing trajectory during the pandemic for vulnerable populations
Objectives: We investigated changes over time in mental and social wellbeing indicators for vulnerable population subgroups during the pandemic. These groups were younger people, people with disabilities, low-income groups, unemployed, culturally, and linguistically diverse communities (CaLD), and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. Methods: A series of four repeated population representative surveys were conducted in June 2020, Septem…
A Settings and Systems Approach to Promoting the Health and Wellbeing of People with an Intellectual Disability
Research has shown that people with an intellectual disability have higher rates of certain preventable health conditions and a higher rate of avoidable mortality relative to the general population. With respect to health behaviours, they also have lower levels of physical activity and poorer nutrition. Despite the increased health needs, this population cohort is less likely to have the opportunity to participate in health promotion programs. Th…
Workplace Structures and Culture That Support the Wellbeing of People with an Intellectual Disability
There is little research on health-promoting workplace settings focused on people with an intellectual disability. There are a range of supported and open employment workplaces where people with an intellectual disability work, and this is an important setting that can influence health and wellbeing outcomes. The health promotion research that has been conducted with people with an intellectual disability has been programmatic in focus and lacks …
A systems science leverage point analysis of climate change advocacy
Failure of governments across the world to address climate change has fuelled social movements focused on climate-related policy and action. Research analysing these movements has focused mainly on the types of strategies employed including blockades and occupations, marches and petitions, divestment, boycotts and litigation as well as how groups are framing climate change as a problem. What has been largely missed are the ways these groups are f…
What Can Public Health Administration Learn from the Decision-Making Processes during Covid-19
Human decision-making is prone to biases and the use of heuristics that can result in making logical errors and erroneous causal connections, which were evident during COVID-19 policy developments and potentially contributed to the inadequate and costly responses to COVID-19. There are decision-making frameworks and tools that can improve organisational decision-making. It is currently unknown as to what extent public health administrations have …
Organisational structures and processes for health and well-being
Replicating these types of organisational structures, processes, and culture requires consideration of complex systems perspectives on implementation fidelity which has implications for policy, practice and future research
Building a Prevention System
HTV was an innovative attempt to strengthen health promotion infrastructure, creating a common language and shared understanding of prevention system requirements. However, the model was inadequate for HTV to achieve population-level reductions in chronic disease as system oversight was missing, as was an intervention delivery focus. Clarity was needed to define the systems practice that HTV was seeking to achieve. Importantly, the HTV prevention…
Youth resilience and training programmes in Australia and the US
In a world where opportunities are increasingly limited, young people are encouraged to become resilient and entrepreneurial in their pursuit of the traditional markers of adulthood. Social enterprise and community organisations dedicated to supporting young people seek to recast these expectations by providing supportive work and training environments and cultures and encouraging young people to find passion and hope in economic conditions that …
Barriers to policy action on social determinants of health for people with disability in Australia
It is well established that social determinants are crucial to health outcomes. However, the link between how social determinants contribute to health inequalities for people with disability has often failed to be acknowledged. For example, Australian disability policy has paid little attention to social determinants of health, despite people with disability faring particularly badly on a range of outcomes. This paper identifies barriers to polic…
Designing tools for ‘joined up’ homelessness prevention
Homelessness is a complex social problem with significant health and economic consequences. Prevention‐based responses seek to reduce the number of people who go on to experience homelessness, but effective homelessness prevention is challenging to implement and can require service integration across mainstream referral organisations and specialist homelessness service agencies. The ‘At‐Risk Screening Tool’ was piloted over August 2018 to March 2…
Alignment and political will
Many small scale efficacious programs and interventions need to be ‘scaled-up’ in order to reach a larger population. Although it has been argued that interventions deemed suitable for upscaling need to have demonstrated effectiveness, be able to be implemented cost-effectively and be accepted by intended recipients, these factors alone are insufficient in explaining which programs are adopted more broadly. Upscaling research often identifies pol…
The ‘Practice Entrepreneur’ – An Australian case study of a systems thinking inspired health promotion initiative
The potential of systems science concepts to inform approaches for addressing complex public health problems, such as obesity prevention, has been attracting significant attention over the last decade. Despite its recent popularity, there are very few studies examining the application of systems science concepts, termed systems thinking, in practice and whether (if at all) it influences the implementation of health promotion in real world setting…
Evaluating for impact
There is debate within the health promoting school (HPS) movement on whether schools should monitor health behaviour outcomes as part of an evaluation or rely more on process type measures, such as changes to school policies and the physical and social environment which yield information about (in)effective implementation. The debate is often framed around ideological considerations of the role of schools and there is little empirical work on how…

The Experiences of Students from Refugee Backgrounds at Universities in Australia
The vast majority of refugees arriving in Australia are between the ages of 16 and 35 years, and some refugee youth are embarking on university education. While there has been research conducted on refugee youth experiences at secondary school there is little research about their experiences in university education. Most refugee youth have experienced a range of traumatic experiences that compound the difficulties in adjusting to a new country. M…
