SUMMARY:Sonia Orchard and Louise Milligan in conversation
DESCRIPTION:We are honoured to welcome Sonia Orchard for a conversation with journalist and author Louise Milligan\, about her new book\, Before the Harm: Preventing Abuse\, Protecting Children\, the latest in MUP’s In the National Interest series.\n\nBefore the Harm starts a conversation that is long overdue: child sexual abuse is one of Australia’s most widespread and devastating public health crises\, with children more exposed than ever\, from the privacy of the family home to the unpoliced corners of the internet. But there is some hope in this darkest of topics: CSA is preventable\, but – as Before the Harm outlines – prevention requires political courage and real investment in support programmes.\n\nDrawing on interviews with leading voices including Jess Hill\, Grace Tame and Professors Ben Mathews\, Michael Salter and Daryl Higgins\, alongside research and accounts from survivors and offenders\, Sonia Orchard reframes one of our most confronting social issues and shows that protecting children begins long before a crime is committed.\n\nPlease note that some members of our community may find this event distressing and are advised to consider the impact of hearing more about this topic.\n\nFree\, but bookings are essential.

SUMMARY:Trip Reports by Rich Haridy
DESCRIPTION:We are delighted to host the launch of Investigative journalist Rich Haridy’s Trip Reports.\n\nPsychedelics have been one of the most exciting and controversial developments in mental health treatment in recent years. Journalist Rich Haridy has been reporting on this space for years. In that time he has seen many shifts\, including Australia moving from one of the strictest to one of the most progressive nations when it comes to the ways that psychedelics can being studied in labs and in experimental trials.\n\nIn Trip Reports\, Rich Haridy does a deep dive into the experimental science and treatments happening across Australia and the world\, from the little-known history of psychedelic use in medicine in 1960s Melbourne to the latest science on the impacts of microdosing (or lack thereof) and use of MDMA in PTSD treatment.\n\nFree\, but bookings are essential.
