welfare advocates urge culture change in the wake of RoboDebt revelations 4YOU 98.5FM Capricorn Community Radio
Described as a crude and cruel mechanism, RoboDebt received thorough investigation in the final Royal Commission Report, with the assessment stating the unlawful Scheme made many people feel like criminals.
Following a condemning account of federal ministers and public servants, the report made 57 recommendations, including a change in social attitudes towards welfare recipients.
With thousands of lives left devastated by the Scheme revelations have again sparked major reaction from media and activists with a local poverty advocacy group urging the need to tackle the culture of welfare bashing that RoboDebt has come from.

Open letter urges the Federal Government to target university sexual violence 4YOU 98.5FM Capricorn Community Radio
Content warning: reference to sexual harassment
Over 40 groups and individuals Australia-wide have signed an open letter urgently calling on the federal government for immediate action to address sexual violence in university spaces, in the face of escalating rates.
Advocates say university leaders are claiming to have had zero tolerance to sexual assaults in the six years since the landmark Change the Course Report yet recent figures in the latest National Student Safety Survey reveal a different story.
The Wire contacted Universities Australia for comment on the issue Universities Australia chief executive Catriona Jackson said:
Sexual harm is a societal problem. We all have a responsibility to act, which is why universities are working hard to reduce instances of this behaviour on campus. Working closely with students and victim/survivor groups, Universities Australia launched the world-first, sector-wide Respect.Now.Always initiative in 2016. This set in motion the development of hundreds of measures and programs at universities across the country to prevent and better respond to sexual harm. Our universities have a strong understanding of their own unique demographics, their campuses and their students, which is why they are best placed to continue building on the extensive work undertaken to date. The policy frameworks, good practice guides and other resources we have developed with experts on behalf of the sector will continue to assist universities in combating sexual harm on campus.

Music has been shown to be cathartic for many people. It can also help with language.
New research from the Lyon Research Centre in France, Western Sydney University MARCS Institute for Brain Behaviour and Development and the Vanderbilt University Medical Centre has shown that regular rhythms can boost sentence repetition in children with Developmental Language Disorder.

Climbing tips Townsville: Why not call it Cityvillage?
Hey, I'm in Townsville for work for a month. Bought my rock shoes, keen to get out (apparently bouldering on Maggie is particularly good?)
Does anywhere in town do crash pad rental? And is the gym/wall worth visiting?
I also heard Castle rock is out of bounds or has access issues right now?
Thanks in advance, looking forward to exploring.
