Teacher training material for the Papua New Guinea 'E' Course

  • AU ANUA 461
  • Series
  • 1960 - 1972

Post World War II the need for education in Papua New Guinea was listed as essential in the Provisional Administration Bill of 1945. In the late 1950s, W C Grove, as Director of Papua New Guinea Education, saw that education for local students was hampered in that the Territory did not have staff to run schools while indigenous teachers were being trained. The 'E' or Emergency Crash Teacher Training Course was implemented. The aim was to recruit Australians, quickly train them and post them to primary schools. The first "E" course began at Malaguna Technical Centre in 1960. On 1 April 1961 the first E course graduates were posted to districts throughout PNG. The courses ended in December 1971. This compilation is in two parts. The first describes the courses, the second is a list of lecturers, trainees who graduated from the three training colleges at Malaguna, Madang and Port Moresby, and selected events.

Health and Education Promotion System (HEAPS) files

  • AU NBAC N349
  • Deposit
  • 1987 - 1999

HEAPS is a national database which provides details of health promotion material and activities throughout Australia and New Zealand. It acts as a directory of contact people working in the areas of health education and promotion and as a guide to the programs and resources they have produced. Over 1000 topics are covered on HEAPS and include subject areas such as Aboriginal health, nutrition, women's health, occupational health and safety, smoking, drug and alcohol misuse, and mental health. HEAPS was initiated in response to recommendations from the Australian Health Ministers’ Conference in April 1985, and a meeting of State Directors of Health Promotion. The lack of well organised and easily accessible information was identified as one of the major blocks to the growth of health promotion in Australia. It was recommended that a computerised database be established to alleviate this problem. HEAPS was piloted in Victoria in 1985, and then steadily spread across Australia. HEAPS was jointly funded by State and Territory Health Departments (NSW Health, SA Health, Queensland Health, &c) and by the Commonwealth Department of Community Services and Health under the National Health Promotion Program (NHPP). State Health Departments funded the employment and resourcing of State Co-ordinators, who were responsible for the collection of data, the management and promotion of HEAPS at the local level, and servicing of most search requests. The Commonwealth provided funds for a national office, originally located at Victoria College, Rusden Campus, which was responsible for overall system co-ordination, development, marketing and evaluation. In 1991 the management of HEAPS was transferred to a private company, Datascape Information Pty Ltd, and towards the end of 1994 it was taken over by Prometheus Information in Canberra. By 2000 further expansion was no longer possible, due to limited funding, and, also, the need for HEAPS as a stand-alone system was gradually being eroded by the increasing availability of health information on the internet. Initially HEAPS could be accessed via the National Library’s MEDLINE. Under private management it was available as a set of floppy disks with a printed manual, and finally on CD-ROM. The holdings consist of administrative papers, health information and promotional materials such as pamphlets, booklets, posters, video recordings, &c. and information on the agencies supplying the materials. Although the original intention of the project seems to have been to inform the public on the location and availability of materials, many agencies supplied copies of their materials, and these have been retained (ref. HEAPS files, N349/1467, Training manual and miscellaneous notes, Oct 1989).

Aerial topographical photographs, 1986 - 1987, together with related printed material on Vanuatu geology, forestry, agriculture and land use, 1967 - 1997.
Background:
'In June 1990, the Australian International Development Assistance Bureau (AIDAB) contracted the Queensland Forest Service (QFS) and the CSIRO, Division of Tropical Crops and Pastures to undertake the Vanuatu Forest Resource Survey Project. The principal aim of the project was 'to contribute to the national objective of the Vanuatu Government to plan and manage the country's forest and agricultural resources in conjunction with appropriate land use development and conservation strategies for the economic benefit of the Vanuatu people'. During the project a geographically-referenced micro-computer based planning tool called the Vanuatu Resource Information System (VANRIS) was developed. VANRIS integrates spatially referenced information for the entire country concerning the type, distribution and current use of the natural resources with population distribution'. This Abstract was taken from Bellamy, J A (Ed), VANRIS Handbook, CSIRO (Qld), 1993
