...Good morning, I’m Samantha Reid and this is my colleague Emily Harvey Fraser Coast Queensland, where nature comes alive… How many of you knew this was the brand slogan for the Fraser Coast before you commenced this subject?? Just a show of hands… So not a lot of you But more importantly does this draw you in? Does it capture you and make you want to visit the Fraser coast? Our question today… is it possible to have one brand slogan that is suitable for all of the different segments that Fraser coast tourism is targeting? NEXT SLIDE To really be able to answer this question we need to look at some important contributing factors. What is a slogan and why is it important to a destination brand? What is the current situation for Fraser Coast’s Tourism industry? What does the Fraser Coast have to offer? And Who are the market segments? NEXT SLIDE What is a brand slogan? “A Slogan is a short phrase that communicates descriptive or persuasive information about a brand” NEXT SLIDE Slogans are particularly important when it comes to differentiating a destination from its competitors. A destination slogan should be memorable and it should tie in with the overall positioning of the brand. Slogans can be an incredibly effective tool and when used correctly consumers will be able to identify a destination and its brand from the slogan. NEXT SLIDE This image is a really great way to illustrate the importance of a Slogan. Slogans are a shadow for the brand,...

...The Stolen Generations The term “Stolen Generations” is used for the Children of Australian aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander, most of the children were under 5 years old, who were taken from their parents by the Australian government and Church. They were separated from their parents and lived in dormitories or with foster parents. It is referred to “stolen generations” because it happened for many decades and several generations were affected. It is believed that these forcibly removals happened from around 1900s until 1970s. Approximately 100.000 children were stolen during that time. They had less contact with their parents or even didn’t know whether their parents were still alive or not. Nowadays, many of them are still searching for their families. There were many reasons to justify the Australian government actions includes to give them better living conditions because their aboriginal parents would only neglect them, to convert their beliefs into Christian by moving them from the cultural influence of indigenous people and to give them better education. However, the truth is, there was an assimilation policy that aboriginal people would die out if they have children with white Australians for generations and a fear of miscegenation by full-blooded aboriginal people. The term “Stolen Generations” is used for the Children of Australian aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander, most of the children were under 5 years old, who were taken from their parents by the Australian...

...(b) Habitat: Bennett’s Wallabies primarily live throughout the coastal forests of eastern and southern Australia and Tasmania. They could also be found in New Zealand and Bruny Island. Their habitat ties are environments that include open areas, brush areas, rock outcroppings and forests. (c) Food: Wallabies are herbivores. Their diet is mainly made out of grasses, shrubs, and bushes. Wallabies have large jaw room and large teeth which makes it easier for them to chew their food. Bennett’s wallabies are mainly nocturnal which means that they eat during the night. During the day they rest so that they could have enough energy at night. (d) Population: There are a lot of different species in the same genera. Some examples are the Tamar wallaby and the swamp wallaby. Similarities between these animals are that they belong in the same family and both live in Australia. Some differences are that swamp wallabies have a lighter shade of color than Bennett’s wallabies. There are about 67 species. Bennett’s wallabies are not currently increasing but they are not in endangerment either. (e) Reproduction: The gestation period for a Bennett’s wallaby is a total of 30 days. The wallaby offspring are carried in the wombs. After they give birth they keep them in their pouches until they are old enough. Bennett’s wallabies breed very easily especially when they are in captivity. They usually have one baby per year. They refer to their offspring as a joey. At about 7 months the joey begins to...

...The steps I would take to understand Aboriginal culture is to go back and do some reading on the stolen generation, massacres, loss of their land and try to understand how Mel would feel meeting with me as a white person and how I could make him feel comfortable to open up to me during our sessions. I would try to understand the link between alcohol abuse and offending and the impact it has on the Aboriginal people by looking up as to why the statistics are so high with alcohol abuse. By understanding that alcohol abuse, racism, loss of land and traditional culture, home life, poverty could be the causes as to why Aboriginal Males are in jail. I would need to be careful about how I approach and talk with Mel about his home life and his alcohol abuse as I wouldn’t want to come across as offending his culture and the way they do things. I would build a good connection with my client Mel by talking about his family and show him that I am interested in his background and a little bit about what his family have been through, I would make it clear that I am here to help him through these tough times and that he can be completely honest with me as I will not take offences nor will I take away his trust. While he is talking to me about his family and their background I would try and put myself in his shoes by thinking what if that was my family that had been through all of this, what if I was taken away from my parents or what if my family got everything taken away from them and had nothing...

...2nd Assignment Explain the importance of education and training and health to the indigenous community of Australia. What is the evidence on closing the gap in these areas with the non indigenous community? Assess the implications of your results for employment, income and hence the standard of living? Introduction It is very important to provide better education training and health facilities to the indigenous community of Australia for the prosperous economy of the country. These are the fundamental elements to get higher productivity, to create more employment opportunity following by the higher income level with higher HDI of the country. It is important to share in the prosperity of the nation. Providing Indigenous Australians with the education, skills and support to find and keep meaningful work, and to build financial self-reliance, is a crucial part of the Australian Government’s long-term vision for closing the gap in Indigenous disadvantage. The participation of indigenous Australians is important to have the opportunity to contribute for a strong economy and economic independence and security for indigenous Australian and to their families and their community.

...Introduction Aboriginal people have a long history of traditions, but many of these traditions were altered or even taken away from them. Aboriginal people are victimized and incarcerated at much higher rates than non-Aboriginal people; this overrepresentation of Aboriginal people continues to pose challenges to policies of justice system. Aboriginal people are more likely to be denied bail, they are more likely not to have legal representation in court proceedings, and Aboriginal offenders are more than twice as likely to be incarcerated than non-Aboriginal offenders. This research will focus on victimization rates for various incidents among Aboriginal women compare to non-Aboriginal women. This research will look into differentiating between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal women's experiences of victimization, using quantitative methods, to better understand the extent of violence against Aboriginal women and the context in which it occurs. The research also looks at previous articles and studies done on Aboriginal women, on their victimization and their representation in news media. Articles, such as 'Newsworthy' Victims? By Gilchrist, K. (2010) looks at the representation of Aboriginal women in new media and compare to non-Aboriginal women and the distinction between "innocent" and "immoral" women. The government system has taken steps to help reduce Aboriginal peoples victimization and offending. There objective is to decrease the rates of victimization, crime and incarceration...

... The purpose of this essay is to analyse the article ‘Government will fail to meet five out of six closing the gap targets’ (Brennan 2015) and identifies the different social determinants of health in the article provided. The article examines holistic implications on the Australian Indigenous community in comparison to non-indigenous communities. The world health organisation defines social health of determinants as factors that affect the individual social, economic, mental and political aspects of their lives among many other factors (World Health Organisation 2015). A large percentage of the social determinants listed by the World Health Organisation affect the indigenous community in Australia in many of their current circumstances. This essay will underline the key social determinants of health inferred from the article (Brennan 2015) with relation to statistics of closing the gap are early life, social gradient, addiction and stress. These social determinants will be looked at into further detail and how it affects the life expectancy, education, child mortality and employment of indigenous Australians. The Social determinants of health include early life as it is a vital part of any individual to be brought up with the best of their surroundings. Early life plays a pivotal role in shaping the present and future of the younger generation. The Bureau of Statistics (2015) state that early and adequate education is a major role for minors that help aid in significant difference...

...Subject Name: Indigenous Australian Politics Subject Code: IA2016 Study Period: SP1 Study Mode: External Campus: Townsville Subject Coordinator: Sharon Moore Student: Josephat Magomo Assessment Task 1: Reflective Critique The European colonisation of Australia over the past two centuries has resulted in violent conflict, forced dispossession, displacement and protectionist policies that denied Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people basic rights, separated families and entrenched discrimination and inequalities. Over the past centuries there have been many changes in the attitudes and rights regarding the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. Despite the efforts by Australian government’s initiatives of ‘Closing the Gap’ in an attempt to address the inequalities between indigenous and white Australians there are still vast gaps in terms of socio-economic status, health care and welfare services, life expectancy, education, employment, housing ownership, land tenure and land rights. However, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people still experience an ongoing prejudice and discrimination as a marginalised minority group. Therefore, there is still a great deal of negativity that needs addressing in our society. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people still experience ongoing prejudice and discrimination as a marginalised minority group (Pedersen, Beven, Walker & Griffiths, 2004). Despite efforts by the government to address the inequalities...

...The charity i chose is rscpca. when and where did it start? The RSPCA’s dates all the way back to 1871, when a public meeting to discuss the treatment of I'll horses in Victoria ended up forming into Australia’s first Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. After the establishment in Victoria soon followed the other states: Tasmania in 1872; New South Wales in 1873; South Australia in 1875; Queensland in 1883; Northern territory 1955 and Western Australia in 1892. In 1923 the Societies were given the Royal Warrant, becoming known as the Royal Societies for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. (RSPCA) what does it do and where in the world does it operate? The RSPCA is an australian community based charity that works to prevent cruelty to animals by actively promoting their care and protection. The RSPCA not only shelters and takes care of animals they also pick up strays or missing animals on the streets and take them back in to protection untill someone picks them up. This has happened to my dog many times an withought the RSPCA It probably would have been hit by a car or lost. So I'm very thankful for the RSPCA. Why for the RSPCA deserve people time and money more than other charities? The RSPCA deserves people time and money the most because people don't realise how badly animals are being treated and how unfair most of there lives are. the RSPCA is doing there best to save as many of these as they can, with our helping hand we can together...

...Rural reporter * From:The Australian * May 29, 201312:00AM NORTH Queensland pastoralists will today appeal personally to Wayne Swan to authorise the purchase of 100,000 drought-stricken cattle to save the starving stock from being shot. Cattleman Barry Hughes said that if Canberra spent $150 million buying cattle -- which it could fatten and slaughter as overseas aid -- it would save Queensland communities, graziers and their stock from a growing crisis. It is estimated there are 500,000 cattle in north and western Queensland that are in too poor a condition to be sold or trucked to a meatworks or feedlot. Mr Hughes, who is leading a delegation to Canberra, will also ask Environment Minister Tony Burke to approve the opening of more national parks to grazing. The meetings with the Treasurer, Agriculture Minister Joe Ludwig, Trade Minister Craig Emerson, Resources Minister Gary Gray and Tony Abbott coincide with a warning from live exporters and cattlemen that new trade concessions from Indonesia will make little difference. Dr Emerson claimed yesterday that the lifting by Indonesia of all import quotas on premium processed beef from Australia until the end of the year, and the acceleration of its imports of live cattle, would benefit drought-hit farmers. The moves will allow an extra 17,000 cattle to be shipped live from ports such as Darwin, Karumba and Wyndham from next month. Queensland Agriculture Minister John McVeigh said the decision was a "step in the eright...

...There has been an abundance of injustices suffered by the original owners of our land which still continue to this day but since WW2, which occurred from 1939-1945, Indigenous Recognition has been one of the rapidly changing important issues in Australian society. Although there has been a shift towards recognition, which has helped to shape this nation into a more diverse and accepting nation, we have still not come far enough to Recognition. Indigenous Recognition is defined as having a voice to parliament, treaties and truth telling in history. Before WW2, Indigenous people were not spoken about, their recognition was minimal, and most Australians did not fully understand the horrific events they had endured. Our contemporary nation has changed drastically since then, as many activists have been able to spread awareness of Indigenous suffering, which has created a wider understanding, leading to broader recognition in order to aid Indigenous people in their day to day lives. Indigenous Recognition before World War 2 was very minimal. There was little, if anything written about Indigenous History and the impact that colonisation and invasion had on their lives. The Colonisers in 1788 brought diseases, and took all their land while destroying sacred sites, which they had lived on for centuries. Aboriginal people were forced to carry around certificates stating who they were and leave their sacred customs behind. They were known as Flora and Fauna and had no rights. Until...

... Despite the fact there have been improvements in the prosperity and general well-being of Indigenous Australians in recent years, there are still some ongoing challenges today. Indeed, associations such as ‘Kalinda, an inaugural Wingara Mura Leadership Program Fellow, launched in 2016 keeps on reviewing better approaches to manage the aberrations in wellbeing results for Indigenous individuals. Social determinants for the Indigenous population have led to poorer medicinal service’s availability and lower levels of mental and physical health. Developing a domain with fortress from mental and physical abuse as well as offering possibilities for self-awareness is all indispensable for expanded and euphoric lives of Indigenous peoples. There are two types of illness; physical and mental. Physical illness is associated with different kinds of toxins, accidents and infectious/contagious diseases. Whereas, mental illness occurs because of fear, anxiety, anger, stress and other emotional issues. Thus, health in the eyes of the Indigenous, is an overall physical, social and emotional wellness and it isn’t simply the absence of sickness. They perceive it to be “the relationship that exists between people, societies and the universe.” (Cooperative Research Centre for Aboriginal Health, 2011). Compared to non-Indigenous Australians, the Indigenous population’s health and welfare is severely worse. According to ‘The Health and Welfare of Australia’s Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander...
