Welcome to a newish column at Croakey – for those who don’t have time or inclination for Twitter-scrolling.
This week, we feature the Australian Indigenous Doctors Association celebrations, critical justice concerns, climate news, calls to reconsider global health terminology, awards, and upcoming events. And see who gets “the middle finger”.
See more pictures from the AIDA celebration here.
