Curriculum redesign | RANZCP
The first redesign of RANZCP's curriculum framework in 15 years.
[In my best Godfather impression]: You come to me on the day my daughter is to be married and you ask me to contribute to the major redesign of a bi-national specialist medical curriculum - for no money.

Headspace and Orygen's ties to the zionist regime and the colonisation of Palestine
Text
It is no surprise that headspace (an organisation with ties to the genocidal Zionist regime) promptly comply with pressure to remove LGBTIQA+ affirming visuals when visited by a right-wing leader.

The thin-obsessed world is growing more vicious by the minute. But fat people arenβt going anywhere | Rebecca Shaw
Itβs time to open up your big fat mouths and push back against fatphobia

NSW psychiatrists are now correcting headlines because apparently it isnβt a βpay disputeβ which is a real hot take considering it is by definition a pay dispute and theyβve only started making that correction since their strategy landed like a lead balloon with the people they claim matter most.

Australian universitiesβ new antisemitism definition has some academics worried. Hereβs why
Warnings decision could have βchillingβ effect and limit scope of education on Middle East
We spoke to @australia.theguardian.com about the dangers of the new antisemitism definition and its chilling on academic speech about Palestine. By labelling Palestinian political expressions as antisemitic, it will institutionalise anti-Palestinian racism.

If only there were proposals being made for community based peer led models and holistic care. Psychiatry has consistently consolidated the power of biomedical models and stunted the development of alternate frameworks. Of course wait lists are going to be long if you donβt share the load.
