Croakey cuts through health care professional and organisational interests with edgy critiques about the diverse communities they are there for. In other words, you call BS on those with self interest.
The Oceanic Palliative Care Conference (21OPCC) is the leading conference in the Oceanic region for anyone who is interested in quality palliative care and end-of-life care, thought-leadership, information, and ideas. Contracting Croakey Media Services for September 2021, ensured PCA maximum media coverage to a wider audience across health, medical and social sectors. Croakey published in-depth news features previewing and promoting the conference, and Croakey journalists live Tweeted the conference across the conference and pre-conference events, contributing to our conference trending on the 9th of September 2021. Croakey also allowed PCA to manage the @WePublicHealth twitter account, which further helped us share the conference to a bigger audience. In total Croakey provided eight articles and an hour-long podcast post-event. Delegates noted the interaction with Croakey as a great asset to the event and it was a pleasure to work with such a committed, talented and diligent group of professionals. Thank you again for your work, and we hope to continue our relationship in years to come.
Croakey gives us our daily dose of independent thinking, discussion and debate on all things public health. The broad mix of contributors, topics and prolific tweets combine to make it a valuable and lively source of news and food for thought for all Australians.
It was great to be able to collaborate with the Croakey team for the COVID-19 CaLD Community Think Tank. The event was aimed at hearing from those working in multicultural and community organisations about the challenges they have faced during the COVID-19 pandemic but to also capture lessons learnt and strategies that have enhanced engagement and to share those lessons. By working with Cate and the Croakey team we were able to capture those insights and to disseminate them in a timely way which is critical during a pandemic. The resulting article captured all of the key messages in a format that was relevant and tailored to the relevant audiences. The team were easy to connect and work with and I would certainly look to repeat the partnership again.
Croakey has pioneered an unprecedented role in providing an open forum for the revelation and exchange of thinking on health in Australia. Thanks to the indefatigable Croakey team, we have a place where players from all corners of health can share ideas, news and commentary.
It’s always a delight to see the diversity of issues on Croakey, particularly in health policy and social justice, that you just don’t see anywhere else. It’s also great to see the diversity of voices on Croakey, particularly Indigenous Australians and those coming in via social media.
Croakey Health Media has been a valuable partner of the Global Health program at the School of Public Health, University of Sydney, for the last few years. I greatly appreciate Croakey’s contribution to our educational program and the efforts to inspire and engage youth to improve health systems.
With Dr Melissa Sweet’s outstanding supervision, our students have contributed to various media projects on the pressing issues facing Australian society, such as the climate and health dialogue before the 2022 Federal Election, and climate and housing issues for people with mental health. I can see that addressing health inequity is a clear focus of Croakey’s.
The coverage of Indigenous voices in climate and health conversations at Croakey is notably much stronger than the other mainstream media. I would be more hopeful of achieving a sustainable health future for all if we had more health media like Croakey.
Croakey is terrific. Thought provoking, well researched information….and easy to read. A great combination.
