They kicked @davidpocock.bsky.social out of the sports club!!! What is going on.....🤷‍♀ Seriously, this is yet another example of how the lobbying rules in Australia must be strengthened to protect public health policy from being influenced by vested interests. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Listen to young people!

Yes! Please listen to young people! My son (only just voting age!) is astonished at the gambling culture among his peers. It’s inescapable. It’s already ‘worse’. Gambling is like a contagious infectious disease. The gambling industry like an obnoxious mosquito.

theconversation.com/do-something... Australian kids have high brand awareness Can spot tricks used to normalise and market gambling Want their government to act before it is too late I'd guess this is not just Australian kids either!

‘Do something about it before it gets worse’: young people want government action on gambling reform. @albomp.bsky.social Our latest article in @aunz.theconversation.com @hannahpitt.bsky.social @gracearnot.bsky.social @simonemccarthy.bsky.social theconversation.com/do-something...

Huge congratulations to @gracearnot.bsky.social on the successful examination of her PhD!! 🎉🥳👏 Grace it genuinely has been one of the highlights of my career being your supervisor on such an important thesis about kids and the climate crisis. Thank you for being such an incredible student! ❤️

Massive congrats @katrinawood.bsky.social on your first PhD paper! 🎉 “Research investigating the intersection between the social and commercial determinants of menopause is particularly important given that women’s health may be vulnerable to commercial capture.” academic.oup.com/heapro/artic...

Advocates say stigma around gambling harm leaves some young women reaching 'crisis point' before seeking support. This is such an important issue! Well done @simonemccarthy.bsky.social @kateseselja.bsky.social and Ella. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-02...

“Simply reporting a COI does not take the conflict away.” Our latest editorial at @healthpromint.bsky.social discusses the messy, confusing and at times performative system for COI declarations in academic publishing. Would love your thoughts! #academicsky academic.oup.com/heapro/artic...

Australian children seeing gambling ads via Sportsbet filter on instant messaging app Snapchat Article by @henrybelot.bsky.social with terrific comments from @simonemccarthy.bsky.social @davidpocock.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Parents are concerned about the short/long term impacts of alcohol, gambling, cigarettes, and vapes for their children. They try to discuss risks but find it difficult to counter the positive messages their children are exposed to for these products. academic.oup.com/heapro/artic...

"Participants outlined the risks relating to their research, including social media attacks, complaints to university personnel/funders, attempts to discredit their research, legal threats and FOI requests". New paper added to the CDOH special issue today. 1/🧵 academic.oup.com/heapro/artic...

So many fascinating papers in the newly launched special issue on the commercial determinants of health #CDoH @healthpromint.bsky.social - will share some over the next while. Worth checking out the editorial first, especially the 3 challenges identified academic.oup.com/heapro/artic...

Great to see the papers in our Special Issue on the Commercial Determinants of Health already getting media attention! @inquisitivegyn.bsky.social You can read all the papers in the special issue here: academic.oup.com/heapro/issue... www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

What do local sporting clubs really think about gambling sponsorship? In our latest research study we talked to community sporting orgs in VIC and NSW to understand how they navigate the challenges of accepting or refusing gambling sponsorship. academic.oup.com/heapro/artic...

The CDOH special issue at @healthpromint.bsky.social has just been launched! The Editorial launching the series states that we must be led by the evidence on the risk to public health goals that engagement with harmful commercial actors poses! academic.oup.com/heapro/artic...

And from me in particular - as so many of the papers in this special issue show, we need to make sure we have an intergenerational lens on the CDoH. We must do better to engage young people in the decisions that are made about their futures. 🙏

We hope you engage with the 19 papers that have been released today - and the papers that will be released over the next few weeks. We are incredibly grateful to our editorial team members, associate editors and peer reviewers! academic.oup.com/heapro/issue...

But we must also ask ourselves what is the future that we envisage for the CDoH field, and what role does this play in improving health and wellbeing for all? Some of these discussions are challenging but they are important as they will create a foundation of trustworthiness in the CDoH community.

We are reminded of the 'art of the possible' that when we work together, important advances can be made in opposing and addressing the predatory tactics of health harming industries.

We are delighted to launch our Special Issue on the Commercial Determinants of Health @healthpromint.bsky.social Our Editorial reflects on the values that unify the CDoH, the challenges that we face and how we overcome these. academic.oup.com/heapro/artic...
