Beautiful day in Canberra to kick off the Australian Social Policy Conference. Looking forward to discussing policy approaches to food insecurity. #ASPC2023

at #ASPC2023 @divnahaslam talking through the much greater odds of mental health and health risk behaviour associated with child maltreatment - especially sexual abuse and emotional abuse. Never has social policy been more important. #ACMS

Fabulous #ASPC2023 presentation that made me think about the researcher role. We often talk about amplifying the voices of lived experience experts, but perhaps we need to be thinking how we can create space or facilitate 'meaningful listening' in government.

Clever. And simple. Bravo Dan Ilic 👏👏👏👏

Childhood #trauma can have an #intergenerational impact, but not always. Some children are biologically more susceptible than others. Check out our recent paper examining how #epigenetic differences may explain these differences in susceptibility: cambridge.org/core/journals/…

Quality parenting support reduces violence toward children and improves child outcome but a new study found only 26% of govts have policies to enshrine this. It makes economic sense, it's make a human impact. Why do we not invest more in this? sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
