Sexual violence is prevalent on university campuses globally. In this article, we report a qualitative insider research study examining practices for addressing sexual violence at four universities across Australia and Aotearoa New Zealand. We collected, analysed, and synthesised descriptive information about the practices at each institution. We found unique institutional approaches that nonetheless share some commonalities, yieldingseveral themes that are central to practice. In reflecting on our findings, we conclude with an outline of critical considerations and a call to action for future efforts to address campus-based sexual violence, particularly as this field remains underdeveloped across Australia and Aotearoa New Zealand.

The international emergence of undergraduate education in public health has transformed the public health education landscape. While this shift is clearest and most widely evaluated in the United States, efforts in other parts of the world—such as Australasia—have not kept pace. This article aims to redress the evidence gap by identifying and discussing the different approaches through which Australian and New Zealand universities deliver public health education at the undergraduate level. A content analysis was conducted of online handbook information published by 47 universities across Australia and New Zealand, to gauge the various ways in which these universities implement undergraduate public health education. Each offering identified was assigned to one of four predetermined categories. Of the 47 universities, 45 were found to offer some form of undergraduate coursework in public health. Offerings took primarily the form of single subjects. Less commonly implemented were specializations (n = 20), stand-alone undergraduate degrees (n = 11), and double degree combinations (n = 6). This breadth of activity highlights the need for renewed efforts in evaluating undergraduate public health education across the region. Further research is recommended into three areas: (1) emerging best practices in curriculum development and implementation, (2) explorations of public health accreditation in the region, and (3) the outcomes achieved by students and graduates of undergraduate public health degrees across Australia and New Zealand. These efforts will ultimately strengthen the operationalization and contribution of this education in helping shape the future public health workforce in Australasia.

Academic staff face workplace stressors such as high workloads, job insecurity, and limited institutional support, which contribute to psychological distress and burnout. While workplace-based interventions are important for maintaining well-being, their effectiveness in academic settings remains underexplored. This systematic review including qualitative, quantitative, and mixed methods studies synthesized evidence on individual-level mental health interventions for university academic staff. Five databases (PsycINFO, MEDLINE, Web of Science, SCOPUS, ERIC) were searched for peer-reviewed studies published between 2003 and 2023. From 1058 records, seven studies met the inclusion criteria. Methodological quality was appraised using the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool (MMAT) and the GUIDance for the rEporting of intervention Development (GUIDED) framework. Interventions included lifestyle regimens, mindfulness, yoga, community therapy, and institutionally embedded wellness programs. The findings suggest that brief, structured, and theoretically grounded interventions can improve psychological well-being, reduce burnout, and enhance coping. Facilitators included leadership support, institutional integration, peer networks, and flexible delivery; barriers included stigma, workload pressures, attrition, and digital challenges. Most studies were conducted in the Global North, limiting transferability to resource-constrained contexts. Overall, individual-level interventions show promise, but sustainable, culturally adapted, and multilevel strategies are needed to strengthen mental health support in higher education. These insights also contribute to broader efforts to promote health and safety in the workplace by identifying practical strategies to enhance well-being across diverse occupational settings.
