Our hearts are heavy following the loss of our dear friend and alumna, Sophie Trevitt (JD ’14). Sophie touched the lives of many during and after her law studies at ANU.

A few weeks ago I gave a #Keynote at EUROMET2021 based on research conducted for @Catch22
"There is a lack of a rights-based discourse in a lot of the discussions that we are having in relation to online harms. Yet children and young people have rights within the CRC..."

"We in the Aboriginal community know only too well that contact with the child protection & youth justice systems results in poor outcomes for our children... We must not criminalise behaviours that arise from trauma. It is just not acceptable." Wise words from Muriel Bamblett.
🔥off the press! Described by @BuchananLiana as "..an unflinching account of the criminalisation of childhood abuse and trauma...", I'm super proud of this book & privileged to continue this important research through my DECRA Fellowship. Order it here👉🏽 https://t.co/ItSxALihr6
New and significant publication by Dr @susanbaidawi & Prof Sheehan from @Monash_SocialWk - a must read for all those working in youth justice and child protection. Very significant endorsements of this by key people in the field. Will be of great interest to @YouthJusticeNet
I am so pleased to be able to share my key findings from my Honojrs project last year on youth violence and the effectiveness of using a public health approach. Massive thanks to @Dr_FaithG for setting this up so that this summary document can be accessed: https://t.co/IuIPVqA7AB
