Australian AEA Applicants Mid-Application - Funding Cut Reaction

I know it's a week on, but it took me a while to edit out all the colourful expletives. The 2026-27 federal budget axed $1.5 billion in R&D funding — including the Australian Economic Accelerator, mid-application cycle, with no warning and no plan for what comes next. It also had some genuine wins for science. And that's actually what makes it so maddening. Because you cannot announce a council to implement a reform blueprint and simultaneously gut one of the programmes it was built to support. You cannot say you want a Future Made in Australia while cutting the research commercialisation programme designed to make that future. You cannot tell researchers their work matters and then pull the rug mid-application. I wrote the full breakdown — wins, losses, and what I think the sector needs to do next — over on Substack. Link in the comments. If you were mid-application when the AEA was cut, or you're watching this from outside the sector trying to make sense of it: I'd genuinely love to hear from you. #AustralianResearch #SciencePolicy #ResearchFunding #AEA #AmbitiousAustralia

Australian Strata Managers & Subbies - Fire Safety Execution Chain

Your owners corporation just received a $4,000 fine. Who saw it coming? One great question came up in a recent conversation and I can't stop thinking about it: "How do I know if what my contractor is telling me is actually required by law?" It sounds simple. I'm not sure it is. If you're managing strata or facilities compliance anywhere in Australia, I am keen to know: when your annual fire safety obligations come around, how do you actually know the execution chain is complete? Still early in this research. If you're a strata manager, building manager, facilities manager, owners corporation member, or a subbie with an opinion, I'd genuinely love to hear from you. #StrataManagement #BodyCorporate #OwnersCorporation

Australian Non-Property Investors - Capital Gains & Negative Gearing

Post budget: how will the proposed tax changes affect you? Hello, ABC News business team here. Post budget, we're examining the real-life impact of the federal government’s key changes to capital gains tax and negative gearing. We are particularly interested in hearing from people who invest outside the property market, including those who hold shares, ETFs, crypto, or other alternative assets, and have question/concerns about how the changes could affect their long-term plans. We’d also like to hear from rentvestors, people who rent where they want to live, while investing elsewhere, and whether the changes could affect the way you build wealth, save for a home, or plan for early retirement. (confirming the mods have okayed this post!) Are you affected? email [email redacted]@proton.me

FIFO Fathers & Support Workers - Returning to Site After Fatherhood

FIFO Fathers - I want to hear from you. The FIFO Family Project is presenting at the Australian Fatherhood Research Symposium on 8 May. We interviewed fathers for the guide and I’ve heard many stories from Dads since. I want to hear from you so we have more FIFO dads’ voices in the conversation. If you’re a FIFO father: - What worked when you came back to site after becoming a dad? - What didn’t? - What would’ve made the difference? If you work alongside FIFO fathers - supervisor, GP, midwife, CHN, EAP, HSE: - What do you need to actually support them? - What have you seen work? - What’s missing? We know fathers are leaving the industry FIFO when they start a family. Not because they want to - but because they don’t feel they can manage both. We’re here to say they can. With support. But we need to know what that actually looks like in practice. Comment below or DM me if you’d rather stay anonymous. #FIFOFathers #FIFOFamily #PaternalMentalHealth #MiningIndustry #TheFIFOFamilyProject #perinatal

Former Edelman APAC Health Chair - Launches Advisory Ward

I didn't think my LinkedIn #journorequest for brief #Australia and New Zealand news this morning would actually work, and I was right. It did not.

It proposes a framework of fifteen dimensions of bid fragility, drawn from analysis of 528 troubled projects. The research is built primarily from public sources — national audit office reports, parliamentary inquiries, royal commissions, court proceedings, and investigative journalism. What the public record doesn't always capture is what it felt like from the inside. The pressures, the trade-offs, the moments where people saw the problem but couldn't change the trajectory. If you worked on any of the following projects — on the client side, the vendor side, or in an advisory capacity — I'd welcome the opportunity to have you review the relevant chapter. I'm not looking for you to defend or relitigate what happened. I want to make sure I've got the story right, and the insider perspective matters.

RPL Candidates & Practitioners - Career Transition Stories & Gaps

**A Candid Conversation on RPL** After months of intensive research, the report for the Australasian VET Research Association and the Victorian Skills Authority The Australasian Vocational Education and Training Research Association (AVETRA) is finally public. At 222 pages, it is perhaps one of the most comprehensive looks into the Australian RPL landscape in recent times. But I know that for busy VET professionals, a 222-page document is a lot to digest. What we often overlook is that behind the RPL process, compliance, research, data, policy, and (perceived) complexity is a person trying to navigate a career transition. This is becoming more frequent as the working world rapidly changes with the green and digital transitions. I am thrilled to join Paul Pellier in an upcoming **free webinar** where we can move past the technical text and have a real conversation about the future of skills recognition. What we'll explore together: This session is designed as a deep-dive interview and Q&A where I’ll be sharing: The 'Blind Spots': Identifying the gaps in Australia’s current approach to RPL data collections. The Technical 'How': I’ll spend 15 minutes detailing how I apply the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence when building and evaluating RPL tools and programs to ensure they are both compliant and accessible. Success Stories: practical examples of how RPL has successfully transformed career pathways for working individuals. To Our Jobs and Skills Councils & (T)VET Leaders As we look to align training with the evolving needs of industry, we must address RPL underutilisation and systemic hurdles in skill recognition. I invite you to join this session to discuss how we can improve RPL projects and make the system work for every learner. *** This is a free session, and we want to hear your voice. I am particularly interested in hearing from candidates and practitioners about their career transition journeys. 👋 Please connect and send a direct message, and we can chat about your success stories. What worked, what didn't, what could have been done better? Please share any burning questions I can prioritise for you.

Australian ECEC Directors & Providers - Children's Data Privacy Audit

Every ECEC service in Australia collects data about children. Enrolment forms. Developmental records. Medication. Incidents. Daily observations. Photos. More and more of it held not by the service itself, but by third-party platforms they chose, set up, and handed the keys to. Most directors have no idea what happens to that data after it leaves their system. That's not a criticism. It's a structural problem. The platforms are complex, the privacy policies are written for lawyers, and nobody in the sector has sat down and actually measured what these tools do against what Australian law requires. Guarding Little Footprints is a research project auditing the data privacy and security practices of the platforms used in Australian early childhood education and care. Each platform gets assessed against the Australian Privacy Principles, the NIST Cybersecurity Framework, and OWASP application security standards, using only publicly available information. The goal isn't to name and shame. It's to give the sector (directors, approved providers, peak bodies, and regulators) an evidence base they don't currently have. I'll be sharing findings here as the research progresses. If you work in ECEC, advise services, or care about children's data rights, I want to hear from you. Which platforms are you using? What questions do you wish someone would answer? Drop them in the comments. Your experience shapes where this research goes.

Australian Builders & Tradies - Honest Industry Conversations

I spent part of Easter weekend doing something I should have done months ago… Sorting out the backend of how we bring guests onto the podcast. We get a lot of requests and it's been hard keeping up. Not how most people would spend a long weekend. But it needed to happen as we are getting pretty smashed, and the family were occupied with enough chocolate to last until June, so… here we are. We’ve had some incredible conversations on the show. Over 250 episodes in but as we reach more and more, like any good builder we need some better systems. That changes now. If you’re a builder, tradie, supplier, or industry professional with something real to say, I want to hear from you. No PR pitches. No vendor demos. No “we’ve got an exciting announcement” conversations that turn into a product placement. Just honest talk about what’s actually happening in the industry. Link to apply is in the comments. Who do you think I should be talking to? #thegoodbuilder #constructionindustry #buildingbusiness #australianbuilding

Newcastle Residents Born Before 1938 - WWII Childhood Memories

Looking for Newcastle locals who were children during WWII for documentary interviews Hi all, I’m currently working on a documentary project called “Children of the Home Front.” It explores what it was like to be a child in Australia during the Second World War - with a focus on the Newcasle region. Many people remember the big events of the war, but the everyday experiences of children at the time were rarely recorded. Things like air raid drills at school, rationing at home, encounters with American troops, and how kids understood what was happening in the world around them. I’m looking to speak with people who were children during WWII (roughly born before 1938) and grew up in Australia. I’m particularly interested in memories about: School life during the war Rationing and shortages Air raid precautions and drills Seeing troops or military activity How children understood the war at the time Interviews would simply be relaxed conversations focused on recording personal memories for the historical record. If you know someone who might be interested in sharing their story, you can read more here or get in touch: https://www.ourpast.au/children-of-the-home-front [email redacted] Ideally participants would be located in Newcastle (or within a few hours drive), as interviews will take place in person. Even if someone isn’t sure their memories are “important”, those small everyday stories are often the most valuable Thank you, Jacob
