Every child - regardless of postcode - should have access to quality early learning and care.

Today @the_parenthood is in Canberra leading a group of 50+ rural & regional organisations to launch the Access for Every Child Coalition.

I could cry 😭

The Commonwealth Government has officially paid off the remainder of my HECS debt! Over $15,000 wiped 😭❤️🙏🏻

Today I feel valued. Today I’ve added another reason for our next generation to choose Rural.

"For me, it often feels that being a 'good trainee' conflicts directly with being a good enough parent."

Finding childcare that is affordable and accessible is difficult and stressful, writes Charlotte Leahy

I've treated people living in abject poverty, and the reduction in tax cuts for higher incomes affects me. I completely support this change. We need a more equal, fairer, kinder Australia, and this is a good start. https://t.co/m7FMbkFeY4

Bushfire season is coming. If you have asthma or another lung condition, you need to protect your lungs from smoke. Our staff share 3 ways to do that in this article: https://t.co/LePtbvBWNI

The Norwegians have had the Sami Indigenous Parliament for years.

The Canadians have Section 35 in their Constitution regarding Indigenous peoples for years.

Aotearoa New Zealand has the Treaty of Waitangi for years.

Honouring First Nations Peoples will not harm you.

Not a mandatory eLearning module or yoga mat to be seen

A resilience deficit is not a thing

We don’t need tougher, grittier people

That’s gaslighting by those with survivorship bias

A bad system beats good people, every single time

Professor Kelvin Kong, a prominent otolaryngology, head and neck surgeon, believes the majority of Australians would vote Yes to the Voice to Parliament if given the right information, and that the medical community has a role to play

So true

[Helen Bevan @HelenBevan]

New Stanford study on how much leaders communicate & the impact it creates. 4 key conclusions:
1) Leaders are nearly 10X as likely to be criticised by their teams for under-communicating than for over-communicating
2) Leaders who under-communicate are seen as having less empathy & less leadership ability by their teams
3) Leaders are judged much more harshly by their teams for under-communicating than for over-communicating
4) Leaders should adjust their communication patterns by communicating more, even if it leads to the (relatively minor) risk of being seen as communicating too much:

Our world is changing so quickly. It is a challenge for learning & development systems to keep up. All learning processes are having to change, from formal education, to workplace learning, to the way we organise big conferences & seminars. Here's a good overview of some of the key trends from @brainiup_play. Thanks @WiemanEmile.

[Grace Leo @gracie_leo]

Fabulous keynote from @drmiketodorovic encouraging health educators at #ANZAHPE2023 to explore media for teaching and inclusivity.

Why?
1) Reach & Impact
2) Inclusivity
3) Credibility

[Bob Klaber @BobKlaber]

My growing reflection that we have been too apologetic about kindness, compassion, empathy "I know it is soft & fluffy but it is important..." Kindness is the BUSINESS end of healthcare. We need to start with it. Love this from @maureenbis @donberwick @ProfLenBerry @QualityForum

[Helen Bevan @HelenBevan]

I am a big fan of sketchnote visuals. They help make knowledge and ideas more accessible and easy to remember. Our brains process visuals 60x faster than the written word. You can find all the sketchnotes from @HorizonsNHS on the same page. They have been viewed & downloaded millions of times: https://t.co/78gyec8cFB Lovingly drawn by @LeighAKendall
