    From hurting to healing : delivering love to medicine and healthcare
    Craig, Simon (Hambone Publishing, 2023)
    Australian healthcare systems are stretched and cracking. There are never-ending reports of unacceptable delays, a lack of resources, poor culture, and skyrocketing burnout rates. The problems are overwhelming and appear insurmountable. From Hurting to Healing takes you inside the often-closed doors of hospitals, healthcare, and medical culture into an environment where practices that have worked brilliantly in the past are now breaking down. Dr Simon Craig, an experienced medical leader, offers insights, initiatives, and inspiration to try and repair the damaged and damaging healthcare systems that currently operate. This moving study reveals that our crumbling healthcare institutions are failing in what should be at the heart of the system: caring for each other. Dr Craig outlines his vision of a new way; A kinder and more humanistic approach that can help transform the devastation that exists in health today. From Hurting to Healing reveals the extent of the distress, imagines an alternative future, and delivers to healthcare leaders a guidebook to begin recreating a part of society that is vital to us all.

    Incontinence: 7th International consultation on incontinence
    Rovner, Eric S. ; Abrams, Paul ; Cardozo, Linda ; Wagg, Adrian ; Wein, A. J (International Continence Society, 2023)
    The 7th International Consultation on Incontinence was held virtually in November 2021 under the restrictions placed upon us all by the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic. Once again, the Consultation was facilitated by the generous support of the International Continence Society. This consultation has seen the incorporation of a joint ICI and ICS advisory board which proved to be invaluable in the identification and selection of experts across the 22 committees which, for this Consultation, has included more than 200 experts from across the world. We have also welcomed Eric Rovner to the Editorial Board, as Paul Abrams stepped back from the forefront of responsibility. As Editors, we remain grateful for Paul’s ongoing advice and guidance. We are also grateful for the tremendous support of the team in the ICS office who finalize the proofing and production of the chapters as they emerge from the process. The principle of the Consultation remains the same; the production of a contemporary, evidence based, wide ranging publication which should prove invaluable to all those who commit their professional lives to men and women suffering from the conditions with which they deal. The Consultation was well received by its international audience. Considerable feedback on the committee presentations was acknowledged and responded to, resulting in improvements to the committee’s work, where relevant. We should like to thank all those who watched, participated online and sent in their comments and suggestions. We feel that the work of the ICI remains vitally important to the many millions of men, women and children who suffer from pelvic floor and allied disorders and hope that the resulting publication is equally useful to clinicians and researchers throughout the world.

    InternationalEd2022: Internationalisation of Higher Education at Home: Implications for an Evolving World
    (Internationalisation of Curriculum Special Interest Group, 2022-08-26)
    While many higher education institutions have delved in internationalisation as a means to promote goodwill, understanding and connections between countries, one of the lessons from the COVID-19 pandemic is that many of these well intended aims has been progressively diminished and the focus on the economics of international education has become much more prominent. As population of many countries become increasingly diverse and multicultural it is even more important to re-focus internationalisation back to its core aims. What role does higher education curriculum play in this? How do we develop diversity and inclusivity in thinking and understanding for all students? How do we navigate the various new forms of mobilities post-pandemic? This conference will aim to highlight the importance of internationalisation of the curriculum for an evolving world, locally and internationally.
