Document - Document - Transcript of presentation, VIOSH: "How did we get where we are today" presented by Eric Wigglesworth, 2003. Chronicles recent paradigm shifts in Safety
... VIOSH: "How did we get where we are today" presented by ...Victorian Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (VIOSH) Australia is the Asia-Pacific centre for teaching and research in occupational health and safety (OHS) and is known as one of Australia's leaders on the field. VIOSH has a global reputation for its innovative approach within the field of OHS management. VIOSH had its first intake of students in 1979. At that time the Institution was known as the Ballarat College of Advanced Education. In 1990 it became known as Ballarat University College, then in 1994 as University of Ballarat. It was 2014 that it became Federation University. VIOSH Australia students are safety managers, senior advisors and experienced OHS professionals. They come from all over Australia and industry. Students are taught active research and enquiry; rather than textbook learning and a one-size fits all approach. VIOSH accepts people into the Graduate Diploma of Occupational Hazard Management who have no undergraduate degree - on the basis of extensive work experience and knowledge. Transcript of a talk given by Eric Wigglesworth in 2003. He looks at what has happened for much of the twentieth century. Accidental injury was was unfortunately considered a behavioural problem - fault and negligence, not a public health problem. The "Safe place" paradigm he promotes is similar to the foundation of the post graduate courses in Ballarat.A4 sheets - Cover sheet, 10 for presentationviosh, victorian institute of occupational safety and health, eric wigglesworth, post graduate courses, accidental injury, fault and negligence, public health -

Textile, Abdul Abdullah, For we are young and free, 2017
... For we are young and free ...'For we are young and free' borrows from the second line of the Australian anthem. The phrase speaks to a national perception of a shared identity and politic. As a nation-state, we are relatively young, and politically we see ourselves as having all the freedoms and self-determination associated with a liberal democracy. The work is a manually embroidered depiction of an Australian soldier in Afghanistan. I have deliberately obscured his eyes and changed the colour of the uniform to keep his identity anonymous, and his portrayal symbolic. The work is not about the specific identity of any one soldier, but about what that soldier represents, and how those collective actions relate to the national identity. What does our liberty mean, when our surrogates are explicitly involved in illiberal, destructive actions in other places? What does it do to the agents, and what does it do to those we inflict our agents on? For many in Australia our military is a symbol of authority and security, but only being militarily engaged in invasive wars oversea, anyone who comes across our soldiers in action would only see them as an existential threat. army solider -
