For the past 76 years, the World Health Organisation has been recognising one of the most critical aspects of being human – our health. World Health Day is celebrated on 7th April every year, with annual themes that put some of the key issues in the spotlight – from heart health to infectious diseases, safe hospitals to supporting health care workers, and healthy cities to universal health coverage.

Faith in times of war and the legacy of Saint Patrick

Irish people were among the first migrants to Australia – arriving as convicts and free settlers initially and continuing to contribute in many ways to the country’s history right up to the present day. At the most recent census in 2021, almost 10 per cent of the population identified as being Irish-born or having Irish ancestry.
Accelerating progress for International Women’s Day

t’s International Women’s Day once more and every year on March 8th the world embraces the chance to acknowledge and celebrate the social, economic, and cultural achievements of women. The first International Women’s Day was held in 1911 to promote the advancement of women and gender equality. So much has changed since then, yet there is still work to be done.

The crucial role of positive male role models in our lives

With yet another Father’s Day upon us, many of us will celebrate our fathers or mourn the ones we do not. A father-type figure, however, is just one persona we look up to, and as we look back throughout history, we see the value that significant male role models of all kinds have played in the shaping of humanity and who we are as people.
