SUMMARY:From the Baltic to the Pacific: The first Displaced Persons to arrive in Australia after WW2
DESCRIPTION:This free Zoom event is our first partnership with the National Archives of Australia in 2023.  \nIn early December 1947\, the first post WW2 ‘Displaced Persons’ arrived in Melbourne. They were 839 women and men from Estonia\, Latvia and Lithuania\, selected for resettlement in Australia. This seminar looks at this historic journey\, set against the backdrop of Australia’s attitudes and policies to migrants at the time. It also showcases the range of records available via the National Archives of Australia. \n  \nPresented by Patrick Ferry\, Assistant State Manager\, Victoria\, National Archives of Australia. \nWe send out the Zoom log-in details 24 hours before the event and\, immediately on booking\, you’ll be sent an automatic email confirmation of your booking.

SUMMARY:The Priory in the United States and the Establishment of the St John Volunteer Corps
DESCRIPTION:This is the first lecture in 2023 for the St John Ambulance Historical Society (Vic). \nThe paper will be delivered by Distinguished Professor Emeritus Richard Southby. \n\n\n\nToday the Order of St John is an international family of charities whose mission is to lead globally in First Aid and medical responses to community healthcare needs. The Order accomplishes its mission with the support of its 11 Priories and over 30 associations\, 21\,000 members worldwide and 250\,000 dedicated volunteers operating in more than 30 countries. The Order encompasses the foundations of St John of Jerusalem Eye Hospital Group (SJEHG) and St John Ambulance. \n\n\n\n\nDr. Richard Southby began his journey in public health in his native Australia\, where he had originally planned to go into hospital administration at The Royal Children’s Hospital in Melbourne\, Victoria.  His career path\, however\, changed course when he attended Cornell University for his master’s degree.  He saw his future in the emerging field of health policy and developed a passion for putting more emphasis on public health on his return to Australia. \nAfter receiving his doctoral degree in the Faculty of Medicine at Monash University in Australia\, and holding teaching and research positions at Monash University and The University of Sydney\, and being a full-time commissioner on the Australian Hospitals and Health Services Commission\, he continued his career at the George Washington University when he joined the faculty in 1979.  He held numerous faculty and administrative positions\, including executive dean and distinguished professor of global health in the Office of the Provost and Vice President for Health Affairs at the GW Medical Center; chair of the Department of Health Services Management and Policy; Foundation Gordon A. Friesen Professor of International Health; and the Walter G. Ross Professor of International Health\, among others. He continues his involvement at GW as chair of the dean’s council\, College of Professional Studies; founding director and senior adviser to the Police Science Program; and academic representative to the NROTC Unit. He is also senior adviser to the Army ROTC Battalion at Georgetown University. As adjunct professor of preventive medicine and biometrics at the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences\, he directs the Interagency Institute for Federal Health Care Executives. \n  \nRSVP: museum@stjohnvic.com.au
