Book Synopsis Social Determinants of Indigenous Health by : Bronwyn Carson
Download or read book Social Determinants of Indigenous Health written by Bronwyn Carson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-07-16 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The opportunities and comfortable lifestyle available to most Australians have been denied to generations of Indigenous people. As a result some of Australia's original inhabitants suffer from what has been described as 'Fourth World' standards of health. This is out of place in a country that prides itself on egalitarianism and a fair go for all. Shifting the focus from individual behaviour, to the social and political circumstances that influence people's lives and ultimately their health, helps us to understand the origins of poor health. It can also guide action to bring about change. Social Determinants of Indigenous Health offers a systematic overview of the relationship between the social and political environment and health. Highly respected contributors from around Australia examine the long-term health impacts of the Indigenous experience of dispossession, colonial rule and racism. They also explore the role of factors such as poverty, class, community and social capital, education, employment and housing. They scrutinise the social dynamics of making policy for Indigenous Australians, and the interrelation between human rights and health. Finally, they outline a framework for effective health interventions, which take social factors into consideration. This is a groundbreaking work, developed in consultation with Indigenous health professionals and researchers. It is essential reading for anyone working in Indigenous health.

Book Synopsis The Burden of Disease and Injury in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples 2003 by : Dr. Theo Vos
Download or read book The Burden of Disease and Injury in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples 2003 written by Dr. Theo Vos and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While there have been numerous burden of disease studies over the past decade in developed countries, including several in Australia, the framework and tools have never before been applied to measure disease burden in Indigenous populations apart from a pilot study in the Northern Territory, although the need for such evidence to guide policies and programs is clear. Given the uncertain quality of many data sources on Indigenous health, and the lack of comprehensive information about the comparative importance of various diseases and injuries, it has been difficult to appreciate the complete set of priorities for Indigenous health development. This report responds to that need by providing the first ever burden of disease and injury estimates for the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population of Australia by leading experts in the field. Detailed estimates are provided of the comparative importance of over 170 diseases and injuries for the health of Indigenous Australians, and in doing so, this report fills an important gap in the evidence base for Indigenous Australian health policy.

Book Synopsis Group Model Building by : Jac Vennix
Download or read book Group Model Building written by Jac Vennix and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 1996-08-16 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about increasing team performance. It focuses on building system dynamics models when tackling a mix of interrelated strategic problems to enhance team learning, foster consensus, and create commitment. The book is intended to be applied in the organizations of today. As the "command and control" organization evolves into one of decision-making teams, so these teams have become the critical building blocks upon which the performance of the organization depends. The team members face an increased complexity of decision making with the interrelation of several strategic problems. What this means is that people have different views of the situation and will define problems differently. However, research shows that this can in fact be very productive if and when people learn from each other in order to build a shared perspective. Learning in this way might prove to be the only sustainable competitive advantage for organizations in the future. As a result, team leaders want to create "learning teams" and are confronted with issues such as how to: create a situation where people doubt their ideas rather than stubbornly cling to dearly held views create a learning atmosphere rather than trying to "win" the discussion create a shared understanding of a problem in a team foster consensus and create commitment with a strategic decision facilitate Group Model Building Those who will benefit most from Group Model Building: Facilitating Team Learning Using System Dynamics are those who are familiar with systems thinking or organizational learning, or those who are working in groups and are coming up against the common difficulties.
