Road Safety
On Tuesday 12 March 2019, 24 people from the broader Perth and Western Australian community gathered at Curtin University to participate in a Community Conversation on road safety. A wide range of road safety issues were raised by community members. Attendees were also canvassed for their opinions on solutions to the problems outlined in the session, as well as who might be good groups or organisations to approach to effect these changes.
Kids Immune Development
On Tuesday 26 March 2019, 23 community members joined to share their perspectives on child immune development and research. A wide range of questions were discussed including the influences on child immune development and what needs to be done to inform the public on immune development.
The Link Between Hearing Loss, Dementia and Mental Health
On Wednesday 3 April 2019, 15 consumers and carers attended the discussion on the link between hearing loss, dementia and mental health. A wide range of themes were discussed including education, support, prevention and everyday life challenges.
