Thanks for a great #GiantSteps22 @SaferCareVic - my key takeaways from the second day are themes of empowerment, inclusion, diversity, courage & being away of cognitive bias.
And, my fave 5 quotes from today...
1) "Be bold - if you put yourself out there, good things will happen" - @DylanAlcott
2) "Far better to target the causes for poor sleep in hospitals", rather than targeting the symptoms with medicine - Dr Sasha Bennett #GiantSteps22
3) "There are people who want to listen to what I have experienced" - Zahra Sufeeya, on being involved in @VicHealth's Future Healthy program
4) "Health promotion is not about doing things 'to' people, but 'with' people" - @SandroDemaio #GiantSteps22
5) "If you don't have a sense of place or safety about who you are, then there will continue to be a gap" - Sheryl Lowe @VACCHO_org #GiantSteps22
..and a bonus one - "If we are truly for health and justice, then we have to find the courage to stop the hate, violence and suffering wherever we find it" - @KedarMate #GiantSteps22

Panel discussion up now: 'reframing Aboriginal health as the key to our future of health' with panel facilitated by Nicole McCartney, Chief Aboriginal Health Advisor at DOH Victoria. #GiantSteps22
Panelists incl Brad Brown, Director Victorian Aboriginal Health Service, Sheree Lowe Executive Director of Social & Wellbeing Centre of Excellence @VACCHO_org & Pat Turner AM CEO @NACCHOAustralia - #GiantSteps22 Image
Question - why is it important to reframe health?
Brown - local people talk about their own issues & needs, as needs & #SDOH are different across communities. Co-producing is important - community is part of the process, which is part of self-determination also #GiantSteps22
