Thread by @WePublicHealth

It is difficult to know where to start the twitter thread about designing this #PublicHealth unit in #SystemsThinking I have started this tweet at least 5 times... however my mind kept coming back to 2 incredible women: @mishymorgs @Riley_Therese

@mishymorgs @Riley_Therese People can be the bridge between us & something new, something complex, something challenging. Both Therese & Michelle helped us workout the starting point for designing our unit in #SystemsThinking & provided key guidance along with resources.

@mishymorgs @Riley_Therese You can read about Michelle's amazing PhD here preventioncentre.org.au/research-proje… @TAPPCentre

Also here is her 2022 @phaa presentation preventioncentre.org.au/resources/covi… (how good is the internet when you can find all the things!)

Academia can sometimes be a competitive🤨but the collegiality within Australia's #PublicHealth #SystemsThinking community has been the opposite. Both Therese & Michelle spoke highly of each other, shared time & resources willingly with us. This kind of behaviour is a game changer

Therese & the #PathwaysInPlace team at @victoriauninews not only assisted with initial design, introduced us to their networks, but also provided their research as the focus for one of our assessments.

#PathwaysInPlace - Cocreating Community Capabilities - has two sites (Brimbank & Logan) and is an incredible example of #SystemsThinking in action incorporated with #PlaceBasedApproach

These two researchers, their colleagues & networks meant that our initial design was not only connected to current evidence based research, but had a firm footing in Australia. As boss lady Dianne would say 'perfect, perfect, perfect' ❤️

Final word - the students have responded very well to this publication by @mishymorgs @seannalee We made it part of the introduction session, referring to it often. It is the prefect springboard for learning & understanding
