Women in Peace Leadership in Cambodia Recently we heard the amazing story of Rev. Dr. Marthe Maleke Kondemo from the Democratic Republic of Congo who was sponsored by Royce and Jean Abbey Vocational Scholarship, Rotary International and The Institute for Economics and Peace. Her Vocational Scholarship focused on “justice” and “peace” as central ideas. One of Marthe's major teachers in Sydney was our Lane Cove nominated Rotary Peace Fellow, Patrica Garcia AO. As an employee of the Institute for Economics and Peace in recent years Patrica has undertaken similar work in Cambodia and is passionately committed to the upskilling of women in peace education. In this talk Patricia will explain to us what she is trying to achieve, why she is trying to achieve it, what her experience has been so far and what her plans are for the future. |

Dr Liz Gill is an honorary researcher at the John Walsh Centre for Rehabilitation Research at the Kolling Institute at Royal North Shore Hospital. The first of the Baby Boomers (BB) will soon be 80 years old! There are a huge number of BBs who are renowned for having very different characteristics to the existing octogenarian generation. Based on BB characteristics as a generation and their previous behaviour, they are unlikely to go quietly into that good night! Government has focused largely on the increasing number of services and accommodation that would be required to support Boomers, with no obvious consideration of how they will need to be tailored to align with the characteristics of this generational group. This is most likely due to a paucity of research that explores BB expectations and plans for their ageing.Her research asks what expectations and demands the Boomer group will have for their health, accommodation and aged-care support systems and how existing systems will need to change to meet what Boomers will need and demand. We will also hear from Rotary Fair Chair Lalitha Warren and Project Director John Palmer on insights and updates on our Fair Day on Sunday 13 October, 2024. We are looking forward to having your attendance at this meeting so we can share all exciting news and updates. Be involved and get excited!
