There is no doubt that we are facing a major crisis.

The United Nations General secretary has issued very clear warnings, following the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change [IPCC] AR6 Synthesis Report: Climate Change 2023.

It stated: “C.1 Climate change is a threat to human well-being and planetary health (very high confidence). There is a rapidly closing window of opportunity to secure a liveable and sustainable future for all (very high confidence).”

Even this report, widely approved by the world, may have been doctored for financial and political purposes.

Discussing the timid stance of the Albanese government towards the climate crisis in “Swimming between the Flags,” Shearman writes: “It is crucial that all who wish to understand our likely future read the article by David Spratt on the recent IPCC report.

Spratt points out that “Saudi Arabia vetoed a proposal saying that burning fossil fuels was the main cause of humancaused climate warming, despite the overwhelming evidence.”

[ 31 March 2023 Resilience]

Responding to the Climate Crisis

Despite the clear warnings and a change in government, there is some reluctance here in Australia to respond to the urgency of the situation.

In June 2022 the Albanese government commissioned Australia’s most senior intelligence chief to review the security threats to Australia posed by the climate crisis.

Retired Admiral Chris Barrie strongly supported this initiative, warning that the government should plan for disruptions to trade, more severe drought, and increasing demands on emergency services and the military which would accompany change. [22 June 2022 Guardian]

Although this study was provided to the government towards the end of 2022 it has not been released.

Admiral Barrie was again in the news asking the government to take the Australian people into its confidence.

Guardian]

We remain the world’s third largest exporter of fossil fuels despite the compromise with the Greens for the Safeguard legislation which controls domestic emissions. With the US and the UK we join in allowing new fossil fuel sources, despite these dire warnings.

“The three Aukus countries now walk together down the same street, but unfortunately in the wrong direction. All are excluding themselves from world leadership on climate.” [ Apr 4, 2023 John Menadue]

The crisis is accelerating. A recent study of the world’s oceans revealed: “More than 90% of the extra heat caused by adding greenhouse gases to the atmosphere from burning fossil fuels and deforestation has been taken up by the ocean.” [8 April 2023 Guardian]

They are at 21.1C since April 2023, up from 2016 and the heating appears to be accelerating, penetrating deeper into the sea and laying the basis for more extreme weather.

Warmer seas mean more melting of ice sheets and rising sea levels.

Particularly concerning is the fact that that this could affect the food web leading to the growth of toxic algae and reduction in the species humans can use for food.

to the crimes of fossil fuel companies headquartered in Europe.

“The fossil fuel industry is knowingly driving us deeper into the climate crisis, and it’s doing so through unlawful activities all over the world. To stand a chance of limiting global warming to 1.5°C, all new fossil fuel infrastructure projects must be terminated in 2023, the production of oil, gas and coal should immediately be reduced, and all fossil fuels must be phased out globally by no later than 2050.”

The fossil fuel lobby is politically active and has deep pockets.

“Some fossil fuel companies lobby or bribe political decision-makers to protect their businesses… But it’s important to remember that fossil fuel extractivism feeds on the exploitation of people, natural resources and entire communities, particularly in the Global South, and endangers human life and the environment. “[ 23 March 2023 Greenpeace Nederland]

Back in 2019 keen observers saw that authoritarianism, racism and love for fossil fuels were rising together.

to Parliament in Australia related to its love of the coal industry?

It is striking that the Indigenous peoples of the USA, Brazil and Australia have been opponents, in the main, of the destruction of the environment which accompanies those industries.

What is dismaying is that changes in government in Australia and the USA have not resulted in the acceleration towards rational climate change policies we had envisaged. That again is to the credit of the lobbying activities of the fossil fuel lobby and its allies in media and politics.

Remember the blind response to the Australian bushfires while our then PM was in Hawaii

“Incredibly, the response of Australia’s leaders to this unprecedented national crisis has been not to defend their country but to defend the coal industry, a big donor to both major parties – as if they were willing the country to its doom,” observed The New York Times in an article entitled Australia is Committing Climate Suicide. [Werleman 6 Jan 2020 Byline Times]

Racism, corrupted media, intimidated government

This explains that the huge scientific report has been significantly modified by the political representatives of governments but predominantly those of the fossil fuel producers … The scientific report itself indicates the current emission reduction targets of nations are totally inadequate to avert the dire consequences of a rise to 1.5 degrees.”

The excuse for the secrecy is that the climate risk assessment used classified material.

“Barrie said it was “rather surprising” that the Albanese government was continuing the previous Morrison government’s framing of China as the predominant security threat to Australia.

The Fossil Fuel Crime File: Proven Crimes and Credible Allegations: Greenpeace Nederland

“From Brazil to India to the United States authoritarian governments are waging war on minority populations. The world’s burgeoning far-right movements are far-flung and diverse, but in government they share a few core tendencies: They attack minority populations. They criminalize dissent. And they’re horrible for the planet.” [Basav Sen 10 October 2019 Common Dreams]

“Between the Flags,” and the acceleration of the climate crisis, form a cluster of negative factors around the continuing power of the fossil fuel lobby.

[Shearman 4 April

“Climate change as a security threat seems to be totally overlooked,” he said.” [5 April 2023

According to Greenpeace, the fossil fuel industry spends billions of dollars on advertisements and sponsorship, aiming to deflect attention away from its destructive business models, and to greenwash its public image.

This Fossil Fuel Crime File it has complied is restricted

These far right movements, Trump in the USA, Bolsanaro in Brazil, Modi in India and the Morrison government in Australia protected the fossil fuel industries to the hilt.

To what extent is the LNP rejection of the Indigenous Voice

The bravery of the First Nations people of Australia, Brazil and the US in trying to protect their homelands should not be underestimated, nor should the continuing influence of the fossil fuel lobby.

Dear brothers and sisters

On behalf of the team at Human Appeal Australia, I would like to extend our warmest congratulations to you on the occasion of Eid Al-Fitr 2023.

As Muslims around the world mark the end of Ramadan, the holy month of fasting, we celebrate the spiritual growth and renewal that this time of year brings. This joyous occasion is an opportunity for families and friends to come together and share in the blessings of this special month.

During Ramadan and similar busy seasons Human Appeal Australia plays a critical role in supporting individuals and communities in need, providing vital services and resources that may not be available elsewhere. Providing essentials such as clean water, food, fuel and often partnering with other locals to deliver aid and support to those in need. All that would have not been possible without the generosity of our community.

Please accept my sincere best wishes for a happy and blessed season. May this time of celebration bring peace, happiness, and prosperity to you, your loved ones and to humanity.

Eid Mubarak!

Your sincerely,

Our beloved Prophet (pbuh) said: ‘Whoever helps a brother in his time of need, Allah (swt) will help him in this life & the next”. [Muslim]

EYE SPY: BUILDING INSPECTORS MAY SOON BE SHOOTING LASER BEAMS, SAVING THE CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY MILLIONS OF DOLLARS

New eye-tracking technologies being developed by Australian engineers to identify building defects early in the construction process could save companies millions of dollars, time, and resources.

The technology, embedded in 3D headsets, is designed to help construction workers undertake more thorough checklists, cutting down on the estimated 60 per cent of building costs related to fixing mistakes.

University of South Australia PhD student Kieran May, computer scientist Dr James Walsh and colleagues from UniSA’s Australian Research Centre for Interactive and Virtual Environments, have designed a tool that combines building information modelling and eye gaze data captured during a standard building inspection.

“The augmented reality headsets shoot laser beams out of the bottom of the user’s eye to track where they are looking in a 3D model when they do a building inspection,” Dr Walsh says.

The eye-tracking technology validates the checklist process, ensuring that construction workers are doing a

thorough inspection by matching their eye gaze data against the 3D architectural building model.

“The tool ensures that people doing a building inspection are not just walking through a room, but spending enough time to thoroughly check essential elements, identifying that light switches, taps, cables, or pipes are the correct ones and are properly installed.

“Depending on the nature of the build, whether it’s bespoke or more standardised, the temptation is to tick checklist boxes without doing a rigid inspection, and that can cost thousands of dollars if defects are not picked up early on.”

Dr Walsh says the eye-tracking data does not replace a checklist, but validates it, so defects must still be manually recorded.

“For the construction industry, at the end of the day it’s all about costs and timelines. The earlier we can identify what has gone wrong, the quicker we can fix it and the cheaper it is going to be to remedy it.”

The project was presented at the 2022 IEEE International Symposium on Mixed and Augmented Reality in Singapore.

PALESTINIAN REFUGEE IS ADELAIDE’S LARGEST PRIVATE EMPLOYER

Rejection is what led Palestinian refugee and business mogul Fathi Shahin to becoming a billionaire. Spearheading the largest private empire in Adelaide today, the Shahins migrated to Australia in the 80’s with nothing but big dreams to succeed.

As was the case with many Palestinians, Fathi and his family moved to Lebanon during the Nakba in 1948 at the age of 10. He went to night school to qualify as an accountant. Fathi’s sons, Khalil, Yasser and Samer, who were born in Beirut as refugees followed suit and made the most of their dire situation by gaining an education in tertiary institutes.

Khalil, the oldest of the three, completed a Bachelor of Agricultural Science and a Diploma in Engineer Agricole at the American University of Beirut. Shortly after, the family migrated to Australia and settled in Adelaide in 1984.

Roadblocks started to build up with Fathi not being able to secure employment and funds quickly depleting.

“My Dad still couldn’t get a job, it was about ‘how do we survive?’. I’m an engineer and I thought, ‘I wanted to work with my father and how do we do it?’. That’s what drives most migrants at those times, it’s a lack of opportunity,” says Khalil.

With no luck seeking employment, Fathi eventually purchased a BP station in Woodville, Adelaide the same year he arrived. He started the business with Khalil and two other employees in the beginning, and the four of them worked tirelessly to expand the business.

Within 4 years, the Shahin family established two other service stations and two gift shops. Business began to expand. Even though the three boys initially worked alongside their father, Fathi ensured they were also qualified professionals. After Fathi’s passing away in 2009, Peregrine

Corporation has been run by his three sons. Holding a platform as a migrant in the business world wasn’t easy in the 80’s and 90’s where PoC’s (People of Colour) weren’t as prevalent as they are today.

“In a way racism does everyone a favour. As a matter of fact, I would joke with my dad saying lucky no one gave him a job, because if someone gave him a job, we wouldn’t have a business!”

At the same time, Khalil also acknowledged that racism wasn’t unique to Australia. “Of course, there is racism in society. But let’s also think about that there is also racism in our home country,”

Hajj Khalil Shahin

“At least we live in a society that allows us to address and speak about it publicly. There are societies in the Muslim world that don’t allow us to do that.”

From purchasing a single service station adjoining their house, the Shahins now own and operate 170 service stations in South Australia and 224 gift shops nationally under their company, Peregrine Corporation, founded by Fathi and Khalil.

Peregrine’s greatest success is their 24-hour convenience store and service stations, On The Run, followed by their tobacco and gift shop chains, Smokemart and Giftbox. They also own 11 Subway and Hungry Jack stores in SA alongside other brands such as Brumby’s Bakeries, HappyWash, Oportos, Wendy’s and similar stores. In 2014, Peregrine opened the first of nine Krispy Kreme outlets which to date is known as the world’s most successful

store since 1937.

The company’s ambition has always been to push to excel and exceed. With a revenue of nearly 3 billion dollars, Peregrine stands as being one of the largest private-owned companies in Australia and the largest private establishment in South Australia. They currently employ about 6,000 workers across the country under Khalil’s management.

Khalil was awarded the Order of Australia medal (OA) in 2017 and is the winner of the 33rd Annual Ethnic Business Awards Henry Ngai Medium to Large Business category.

As a proud Palestinian, Khalil knows only too well the struggles of those trying to make ends meet.

“A big part of our lives is our charity trust, the Shahin Charity Trust, which was established

in 1995. My biggest pride and joy is the fact that, Alhamdulillah, we have never accepted a dollar of donation from State, Federal, local or international body. That is out greatest privilege I believe,” says Khalil.

With all that self-made success, Khalil now has just one goal.

“On a personal objective, what I would tell my people, my general managers, my CEO’s and more importantly my family, is we all just want to aspire to be better human beings. That’s all we want to do from now on,” he says.

InshaAllah, Allah allows us to become better human beings. That’s my goal.”

What is Eid al-Fitr?

Eid al-Fitr means “festival of breaking the fast” and marks the end of Ramadan.

Traditionally, Eid is celebrated for three days in all Muslimmajority countries.

HOW IS THE START OF EID DETERMINED?

Like Ramadan, Eid al-Fitr begins with the sighting of the crescent moon (a day after the new moon), so Muslims have to wait until the evening before Eid to verify its date.

If the crescent moon is not visible, Ramadan continues for another day. Because it is a lunar event, the date of Eid changes annually on the Gregorian calendar and varies from country to country depending on geographical location.

To declare the start of Eid, Muslim-majority countries depend on the testimonies of local moon sighters. The local religious authorities then announce when Eid will be taking place.

Congratulations and greetings on Eid

People may exchange congratulations and good greetings on Eid, no matter what form the words take. For example they may say to one another, “Taqabbal Allaahu minnaa wa minkum (May Allaah accept [the fast and worship] from us and

from you” or “Eid mubarak” and other similar permissible greetings. Jubayr ibn Nufayr said: “At the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), when people met one another on the day of Eid, they would say, ‘Taqabbal Allaahu minnaa wa minka (May Allaah accept from us and from you).’”

How do Muslims celebrate Eid?

Muslims across the world begin Eid celebrations by partaking in communal post-dawn prayers, followed by a short sermon. The prayers take place in mosques or large halls but in many countries, it is also held in the open to accomodate the large numbers. People congratulate one another after Eid prayers. They spend the day visiting relatives and neighbours and accepting sweets as they move around from house to house. Children, dressed in new clothes, are offered gifts and money to celebrate the joyous occasion.

This is preceded by the giving of alms to the poor.

It is common for Muslim-majority nations to decorate their streets with festive lights and hold carnivals to commemorate the end of the holy month.

Each country has traditional desserts and sweets that are prepared before Eid or on the morning of the first day. These foods range from special biscuits and bread to cakes and puddings..

Human Appeal Australia Schools Ramadan Iftar dinners 2023

Every year the Community Care Division at Human Appeal Australia provides support to several schools to organise Ramadan Iftar Dinners where Muslims and Non-Muslims breaking of the fast, share a meal and unite as a school community.

Chester Hill High School Iftar

Burwood Girls High School Iftar

On Wednesday, March 29, for the first time, Chester Hill High School held their first ever Community Iftar Dinner. Iftar is the breaking of the fast for Muslims who are fasting during the month of Ramadan. It was an opportunity to come together, whatever the cultural and/or religious backgrounds, and celebrate the wonderful diversity of the school community.

On the same day, Burwood Girls High School and Unity Grammar carried out its Annual Ramadan Iftar Dinners. With over 200 guests including Jihad Dib and Jason Yat-sen Li, MP Member for Strathfield. Jihad Dib a newly elected member from Bankstown, created history as he become the first Muslim Minister of New South Wales. He was sworn in on the Holy Quran, as he assumed the role of NSW’s Minister for Customer Service & Digital Government, Minister for Emergency Services and Minister for Youth Justice.

Burwood Girls High School had a wonderful opportunity for the school community to come together to learn more about the Islamic faith, build understanding and enjoy some amazing food together. As Burwood GHS is such a multicultural school and Muslim students come from many different backgrounds, the evening was a wonderful opportunity for everyone to try food from many cultural regions.

NOISY KIDS IN THE MOSQUE: IS IT THEM OR US?

“My 4-year-old grandson is terrified to go to the mosque,” my neighbour said.

“What happened?” I asked.

“He followed his father to the mosque last week. He was running around at the back of the mosque with the other young children when suddenly a burly man appeared and yelled at them: ‘Do you think this is a playground?’ The man even raised his hand and threatened to hit my grandson and the other kids.”

“Well,” I said, “At Makkah and Madinah, it’s common to see young children tagging along after their parents and grandparents to the mosque. Young mothers would bring their newborns, placing these infants next to them the moment they started praying. It does get noisy, but how else are these kids going to learn to love the mosque?”

Yes, I do know that all that din can be distracting. But to be honest, if we find all that kids-related sounds annoying, instead of getting upset with the little ones, perhaps we should ask ourselves: Is it the kids or is it us? Is there something we can

do to improve our prayers? After all, quality solat (prayer) means you and I are so focused (khushu’), we wouldn’t even notice the sights and sounds around us.

I’m not suggesting I’m so focused during my prayer that the sounds don’t affect me; far from it. But if we were to look at the long-term, every word and gesture we adults make at the mosque and observed by the kids will be seared onto their minds. It’s either, “The mosque is a nice place to be” or “The mosque is a scary place; never again.”

The mosque ideally should be the center of the Muslim community; it makes sense for the children to develop a connection to it.

Children who are never exposed to the mosque may grow up feeling disconnected from their faith and their community. Bringing them to the mosque and involving them in its activities can help to create a sense of belonging and pride.

There’s a sense of community that comes from attending the mosque. Many children grow up feeling isolated and disconnected from their community, particularly if they do

not have Muslim friends at school. By bringing them to the mosque, we can help them to make new friends, interact with other Muslim children, and feel like they are part of something bigger than themselves. Going to the mosque can help to teach them about Islamic values and ethics. Many mosques offer educational programs for young children, which can help them to learn about the basics of Islam and develop a strong foundation in their faith. By exposing them to Islamic teachings from a young age, we can help them to develop a strong moral compass and a sense of purpose in life.

Unfortunately, some mosques are not particularly welcoming to young children, and parents often feel discouraged from bringing them along. This is a problem because if children do not feel comfortable in the mosque, they are unlikely to want to return. These uncomfortable emotions will fester in their minds over the years, pushing them away from the mosque such that by the time they’re adults, the mosque is nothing but a cold, strange place

they would rather stay away from. To conclude, bringing young children to the mosque is an essential part of fostering a strong sense of community and belonging in our children. By providing a welcoming and child-friendly environment in the mosque, we can help to create a space where children feel comfortable and engaged, and where they can learn about their faith and values. As parents, elders, and mosque patrons, we have a responsibility to support families bringing young children to the mosque. So, the next time you hear someone yelling at a little child in the mosque, feel free to speak up, so that the mosque becomes an endearing place to him or her.

WHAT IS EID AL-FITR?

Eid al-Fitr means “festival of breaking the fast” and marks the end of the fasting month of Ramadan.

Traditionally, Eid is celebrated for three days as an official holiday in all Muslim-majority countries. However, the number of vacation days varies by country.

HOW IS THE START OF EID DETERMINED?

Like Ramadan, Eid al-Fitr begins with the first sighting of the new moon, so usually Muslims have to wait until the night before Eid to verify its date.

If the new moon is not visible, the month lasts 30 days.

Because it is a lunar occurrence, the date of Eid changes annually on the Gregorian calendar

and varies from country to country depending on geographical location.

To declare the start of Eid, Muslim-majority countries depend on the testimonies of local moon sighters. The Judicial High Court then decides if Eid has arrived.

When the sighting has been verified, Eid is declared on televisions, radio stations and at mosques.

HOW DO MUSLIMS CELEBRATE EID?

Muslims across the world begin Eid celebrations by partaking in communal dawn prayers, followed by a short sermon. While in some countries the prayers take place in mosques or large halls, in many countries it is also held in the open. People congratulate one another as they head home after Eid prayers. They spend the day visiting relatives and neighbours and accepting sweets as they move around from house to

house. Children, dressed in new clothes, are offered gifts and money to celebrate the joyous occasion.

This is preceded by the giving of alms to the poor, or zakat, which is one of the five pillars of Islam.

It is common for the capitals of Muslim-majority countries to decorate their streets with festive lights and hold carnivals to commemorate the end of the holy month.

Each country has traditional desserts and sweets that are

prepared before Eid or on the morning of the first day. These foods range from special biscuits and bread to cakes and puddings. On the first day of Eid al-Fitr, voluntary fasting is not allowed as Muslims are encouraged to feast and celebrate the completion of a month of worship and abstinence from food.

In some countries, families visit graveyards to offer their respects to family members who have departed. www.aljazeera.com

THE PROVISIONS OF EID AL-FITR

First: preparing for the Eid prayer by performing total ablution and putting on beautiful cloths

Second: it is from the Sunnah to eat an odd number of dates before going out to perform the Eid prayer

Third: it is from the Sunnah to say allâhuakbar (Allah is Great) and to say it out loud, on the other hand women should say it in secret, on the day of Eid when he goes out of his house till he reaches the place of prayer:

Fourth: it is from the Sunnah to go out for prayers walking; on foot

Fifth: it is from the Sunnah that if one goes out for prayer, he is to take one rout and return taking a different one

Sixth: it is legitimate to perform the Eid prayers after sunrise with no Adhan (call for prayer) or iqamah (second call for prayer)

Seventh: if the Eid day coincides with a Friday, whoever prays the Eid prayer is not obliged to pray the Friday prayer

Eighth: who misses the Eid prayer with the Muslim congregation is permitted to make up for it as Eid prayer

Ninth: there is nothing wrong in exchanging congratulations and that people say, “May Allah accept from all of us

Tenth: the day of Eid is a day of joy and affluence

VICTORIANS TO BENEFIT FROM NEW CONTAINER DEPOSIT SCHEME

VIC

Australia’s most convenient and accessible beverage container recycling scheme will begin on 1 November 2023, as part of the Andrews Labor Government’s landmark reforms to the state’s waste and recycling sector.

Minister for Environment

Ingrid Stitt today announced the start date for Victoria’s Container Deposit Scheme, CDS Vic, and named the organisations that will be responsible for delivering the scheme.

VicReturn will be the Scheme Coordinator and Visy, TOMRA Cleanaway and Return-It will be Network Operators.

CDS Vic will allow Victorians to return their used drink cans, bottles and cartons for a 10-cent refund. This will reduce Victoria’s litter by up to half, create new economic opportunities, generate 645 jobs and turn drink containers into new recycled products.

CDS Vic also offers Victorian charities, community groups, environmental groups, sporting clubs and educational organisations new ways to raise funds. These groups and organisations will be able to receive container donations from the community, run a refund collection point or host a container collection drive.

This will encourage more

community participation and education around recycling while ensuring households, local clubs and groups can share in the cash benefits of recycling their used cans, bottles and cartons.

The Network Operators will establish and maintain a network of more than 600 refund collection points across the state, making the scheme accessible to all Victorians.

Within 12 months of the scheme starting, the network operators will be required to have a minimum of one collection point per 14,500 people in metropolitan areas, at least one per town of 750 people in regional areas, and at least one per town of 350

people in remote areas.

CDS Vic is part of the Labor Government’s $515 million investment to transform the state’s waste and recycling sector. This includes the new standardised four-stream waste and recycling system, which will help meet our target of diverting 80 per cent of all material away from landfill by 2030.

More information can be found at vic.gov.au/ container-deposit-scheme.

“Victoria’s Container Deposit Scheme will maximise the number of cans, bottles and cartons being recycled into new products, put extra cash in

Victorian pockets and will reduce the amount of litter in our environment by half.”

“CDS Vic will be Australia’s most accessible and convenient container deposit scheme, with more than 600 refund collection points across the state.”Minister for Environment Ingrid Stitt said.

“This is a great opportunity for Victorians to help clean up our environment, while helping sporting clubs and community groups to raise valuable funds through collection drive events and donations.”Member for Albert Park Nina Taylor said.

TEACHING THE NURSES VICTORIA NEEDS

Monash University is helping to lead the way in recognising the importance of nursing while inspiring the next generation of nurses to join its courses, which are among the world’s best.

Domestic students who commenced undergraduate nursing and midwifery degrees at the university in 2023 may be eligible for the Victorian Government’s free nursing and midwifery study initiative, which aims to alleviate a national skills shortage caused by the pandemic.

With around 450,000 registered nurses and midwives in Australia, Health Workforce Australia (HWA) estimates Australia will be about 100,000 nurses short by 2025 and 123,000 by 2030.

Monash University has graduated 15,000 new nurses and midwives over the past 32 years and is ideally positioned to meet this need, with a 19 per cent increase in undergraduate nursing and midwifery enrolments in 2023.

Among them is Bachelor of Nursing and Bachelor of Midwifery (Hons) student and Tatitati-Palawa woman Ashlyn Mayes, who is studying for her “dream” career. After receiving several offers from across the country, Ashlyn chose Monash because of its globally recognised nursing course and the Victorian Government’s free nursing initiative.

“This was the cherry on top of committing to studying and working in Victoria as a nurse-midwife,” Ashlyn said. “I am so grateful to the Victorian Government, and I am proud, excited and relieved to benefit from this initiative to support new nurses and midwives.

“I was interested in studying at Monash due to the facilities and support. My favourite time of the week is when I have my Clinical Learning Environment classes. Here, I feel like I’m already a grad nurse working in a real hospital!”

Monash Nursing and Midwifery is Victoria’s number one nursing school, consistently ranked in the top 20 of

nursing schools globally. It was ranked fifth in the prestigious ShanghaiRankings Global Rankings of Academic Subjects in 2022.

The program has 1600 current undergraduate and 1000 postgraduate students across 75 units.

Monash University President and Vice-Chancellor Professor Margaret Gardner AC said the nursing program has always evolved with industry needs, and was more important now than ever before.

“Monash Nursing and Midwifery is Victoria’s best tertiary education program and will play a critical role in alleviating Australia’s nursing shortage,” Professor Gardner says. “The Victorian Government’s free nursing and midwifery study initiative will also assist in attracting highquality students with great potential.

“The pandemic has underlined the importance of health professionals, including nurses and midwives, and we must support those who aspire to a career in this vital field.”

Professor Julia Morphet leads Monash Nursing and Midwifery’s response to the industry’s changing scope and increased demand for advanced practice nurses.

“With a growing demand for technological innovation in teaching, nurse-led research and industry collaborations, we’re proud to support and lead high-quality education and research that addresses real-world challenges for local and global impact,” she said. Monash University courses respond to industry needs and prepare students for the complexities of diverse healthcare settings. Innovative new simulation models are enhancing teaching with leading-edge technology. Director of Simulation Samantha Dix is the first such appointment in Australia.

Diversity is also important: Ten per cent of undergraduate nursing and midwifery students are from regional communities, 35 per cent are from medium to low socioeconomic areas, and 54

per cent are the first in their family to study at university. Gukwonderuk, led by the Faculty of Medicine, Nursing and Health Sciences Associate Dean (Indigenous), Professor Karen Adams, provides culturally-informed support for First Nations nursing and midwifery students.

The Growing Indigenous Graduates program engages them while still at school with activities like Hands On Health. They are also guided through the University’s admissions process and throughout their university journey.

“Nurses and midwives are vital to healthy, diverse and thriving communities,” Professor Morphet said. “At Monash University, we’re proud to play a fundamental role in providing them with a world-class innovative education in partnership with the Victorian healthcare industry.”

CRIME STOPPERS LAUNCH NATIONAL ILLICIT DRUGS CAMPAIGN

Crime Stoppers

Crime Stoppers is the nation’s most trusted information receiving service for people wanting to share what they know about unsolved crimes and suspicious activity without having to say who they are.

This is why we have received funding through an Australian

Government Proceeds of Crime Act Grant to help the community put organised crime and the illicit drug trade in the spotlight.

The focus of this campaign are those linked to the illicit drug trade, who often reach a point where they become concerned for their personal safety or that of their family and look for a way out.

We don’t need to know who you are, just what you know.

Research shows drugs remain the number one crime of concern for Australians. Many families have been impacted by drugs, whether that’s losing a loved one or watching them struggle with addiction. Some have been a victim of violence, crime or experienced trauma and we are all impacted by the significant health and social costs to the community. Crime Stoppers encourage everybody to be active in sharing what they know about the

manufacture and supply of illicit drugs in Australia. The result of this community effort will disrupt the illicit drug trade, assist police and have an impact on the criminal supply chain in our country.

Contacting Crime Stoppers anonymously means the criminals will never know it was you who spoke up.

their communities to bring their cultures to light for all to share and enjoy.

HELP US SAVE LIVES BY SAVING THE MEDICARE HEART HEALTH CHECK

Heart disease is Australia’s leading cause of death and tragically takes the life of one Australian every 30 minutes.

The good news is, heart disease is largely preventable.

The bad news? Our best tool for heart disease prevention – the Medicare Heart Health Check – is about to expire.

We are seeking a guarantee from the Australian Government that funding will continue beyond 30 June this year.

Nearly 440,000 Australians have seen their GP for a Medicare subsidised Heart Health Check since they were introduced.

The Heart Foundation is asking the Government to invest $11.5 million

per year, to continue subsidising Heart Health Checks into the future.

This is a relatively small investment compared to the $1 billion in healthcare costs that could be saved with broad uptake of Heart Health Checks in high-risk Australians and more importantly, the 67,000 heart attacks, strokes and heart disease related deaths that could be prevented over five years.

It’s not too late for your readers to take action: I urge you to please help us save Medicare Heart Health Checks by signing our petition, writing to local MPs and sharing the petition with friends and family.

NEW REPORT BOOSTS CASE FOR OR AFFORDABLE MEDICINES

A new journal by the Australian Healthcare and Hospital Association (AHHA), has boosted the case for the Pharmacy Guild’s ‘Affordable Medicines Now’ campaign

The campaign was relaunched this month to argue for a reduction in the maximum co-payment for PBS medicines down to $19 from its current maximum cost of $30.

The AHHA’s latest edition of the Australian Health Review says the high cost of medicines acts as a barrier for Australians wanting to maintain their health.

Guild National president, Professor Trent Twomey says this is the main reason for rebooting the ‘Affordable

Medicines Now’ campaign.

“The Australian Health Review tells us precisely what our community pharmacists are reporting back from the frontline of health care.

“That is, despite the recent reduction in the maximum copayment to $30, the high cost of living is again forcing people to skip medications or choose one medication over another,” he said.

“We are hearing appalling stories of some families who are having to

choose which of their loved ones should have medicine and which ones should go without.

“It doesn’t matter whether it’s communities in Canberra or Cairns, the feedback is the same. Too many Australians are struggling with the cost of medicines.

The AHHA says about the journal, “Policy Reflections authored by Jane Hall and Stephen Duckett reflect on Australia’s healthcare system and the growing and changing health needs of Australia.”

It also says, “As well as people potentially delaying essential health care due to cost, affordability is a barrier when it comes to medications.”

“With another interest rate hike likely in the coming months, medicine affordability will only get worse,” Professor Twomey said.

“Our campaign is ‘Affordable Medicines Now’. The federal government needs to act now.”

REFLECTIONS ON RAMADAN: BUILDING A STRONG MUSLIM COMMUNITY IN AUSTRALIA THROUGH ZAKAT

Alhamdullilah another Ramadan has passed by, and I make dua that Allah accepts each and everyone’s Ibadaat and duas. A very special thank you to all those that has supported us as we are here to serve you, our community.

Despite all the moon controversies this year, I am overly positive that our community is maturing and becoming extremely comfortable in its Muslim identity and the positive contributions we are making in Australia.

As with the dua of prophet Ibrahim

when he left his beloved wife and son in the desert and pleaded to Allah:

And when Ibrahim said, ‘Our Lord, I have settled some of my progeny in an uncultivated valley near Your sacred House, our Lord, that they may establish prayer. So, make hearts among the people incline toward them and provide for them from the fruits that they might be grateful.” [Quran 14:37]

He did not say my wife and son but referred to his descendants and for them to establish prayer. So, we can learn from this is that to secure the

success of our future generations we need to ensure prayer is established. Following on, as we also learn from the miracle book, the Quran, Allah mentions Salah and Zakat together twenty-eight times. Also from the Prophetic way, in how our beloved prophet (saw) cared for the people of the Suhfah and his instructions to Muadh (raw) when he sent him to Yemen, he tied the pillar of Zakat with Salah.

So, as we build our capacity of Mosques here, to establish prayer, we are now also for the first time continuing to build out the pillar of Zakat with our partnerships with

many mosques across the country as far as Darwin. This is a major milestone for our community.

This is very encouraging as I saw so many of our youth in the Tarawih and Tahajjud prayers this Ramadan. We have the recipe for the success of our descendants remaining on the path of Islam. Ameen.

Wishing you all a blessed and happy Eid Mubarak.

BEYOND BLUE SAYS MENTAL HEALTH SHOULD FEATURE STRONGLY IN THE MEASURING WHAT MATTERS APPROACH

Beyond Blue is calling for mental health and mental wellbeing to feature strongly in the Federal Government’s new framework that aims to accurately gauge and understand how people’s lives are tracking in Australia.

The government is developing a Measuring What Matters Statement and Australian Wellbeing Framework to discuss how Australia might measure its success as a nation in ways that go beyond traditional economic indicators such as productivity and growth.

In its submission, Beyond Blue states mental health is central to overall wellbeing and national prosperity. Beyond Blue recommends mental health and mental wellbeing indicators are included in the national framework to better measure overall wellbeing, due to the significant impact our mental health has on the way we live.

Beyond Blue CEO Georgie Harman said the framework was a chance to consider how social conditions influence our mental health and wellbeing.

“The framework must include ways to measure and better understand how employment, housing, racism, discrimination, and social inequality impact people’s mental health and wellbeing in Australia,” Ms Harman said.

“And it must be based on thorough consultation with communities, especially those experiencing mental health conditions and suicidal thoughts, and people impacted by homelessness, unemployment, racism, and poverty,

“Good wellbeing frameworks explore questions not usually asked by governments. “Our submission argues that the measurement of wellbeing cannot simply be a ‘spray on’ collection of data on existing activity but should be a carefully considered strategy that measures the foundations of wellbeing – such as financial distress, social isolation, and discrimination,” Ms Harman said. Beyond Blue also recommends the Federal Government commits to meaningful long-term change by embedding the framework into future decision-making processes, as has happened in New Zealand and France.

FOOD WASTAGE AND HUNGER IN ISLAM

Allah has made provision for every single creature on this earth including we human beings. However mankind is responsible for denying food to many human beings.

Allah (swt) said: “And Allah has made some of you excel others in the means of subsistence, so those who are made to excel do not give away their sustenance to those whom their right hands possess so that they should be equal therein; is it then the favor of Allah which they deny?” [Quran 16:71]

The world produces enough food to provide every man, woman and child with more than 2,300 kilocalories per day, which is more than sufficient.

Just in Australia alone, we produce enough food to feed 75 million people in a country with a population of 25 million, yet 7.6 million tonnes per annum is wasted, enough to fill the Melbourne Cricket Ground to the brim about nine times. Australia’s annual food waste costs our economy $36.6 billion a year.

Since we have so much food, then why is the world hungrier than ever?

Hunger is humanity’s oldest and most devastating problem. Even in today’s advanced and civilized time,

when the world is able to feed its populations many times over; hunger is experienced by one out of every five people in the world.

The number of people affected by hunger globally rose to as many as 828 million in 2021, an increase of about 46 million since 2020 and 150 million since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. According to a United Nations report the world is moving further away from its goal of ending hunger, food insecurity and malnutrition in all its forms by 2030.

Islam enjoins its followers to avoid gluttony, waste and extravagance. Allah (swt) says: Eat and drink but waste not by extravagance, certainly He (Allah) likes not Al-Musrifûn (those who waste by extravagance).

[Quran 7:31]

Contrary to this teaching, some

people eat and drink so much that they become lazy and neglect to perform even their obligatory prayers especially during the month of Ramadan. Excessive varieties and quantities of food prepared for iftar and sahur leads to waste. A lot of food is thrown away by hotels and households into waste dumps. Extravagant expenditure and wanton spending by the rich contributes to a massive wastage of resources which could otherwise have been used to provide the basic needs of the poor. In the US alone, If all the grain currently fed to was consumed directly by people, the number of people who could be fed would be nearly 800 million. Allah (swt) said: “Indeed the wasteful are brothers of Satan, and Satan is ungrateful to his Lord”. [Quran 17:27]

One of the other factors responsible why hunger persist is GREED.

The desire of the rich for food, wealth and power more than they actually need, results in the deprivation of the poor. The greed of the rich is responsible for hunger in society. Allah (swt) says: “Those who are miserly and bid [other] people to be miserly, and conceal whatever Allah has given them out of His grace; and We have prepared for the faithless a humiliating punishment.”

[Quran 04:37]
