What We Do

1. Connect
is a small bi-monthly magazine supporting student participation. It has been published since 1979. It celebrated its 30th birthday at the end of 2009!

Old copies of Connect are freely available for download; current issues are only available on subscription.

Connect also produces a range of small publications about student participatory approaches, which can be ordered here.

2. The Global Village
is a weekly worldwide music radio program on Melbourne community station PBS-FM.

In support of this, I maintain an on-line Gig Guide of worldwide music in Melbourne and environs.

3. Consultancies:

Despite retiring in 2004, I work in support of many school, clusters of schools and other groups - particularly around student participatory approaches such as Student Action Teams.

4. VicSRC:

I also work as a volunteer in support of the VicSRC, the umbrella body of Student Representative Councils in Victoria, Australia.
