eSmart Starter kit About eSmart
About eSmarteSmart provides a guiding framework and system for behaviour change in school communities,
which has already been tried and tested with great success in Independent, Catholic and State
schools around Australia.The evidence-informed practice, policies and activities offered to registered schools support the
school leadership team to create a school community where the smart, safe and responsible use of
communications technology is the norm.As well as pointing to information and curriculum resources, the eSmart system has been designed
to help you record and track your school’s cybersafety and wellbeing activities.eSmart was developed by The Alannah and Madeline Foundation with expert guidance from
the RMIT School of Education, and with the support of many other cybersafety and education
stakeholders.
eSmart is a world-first, holistic approach to changing the behaviour of information and
communications technology users. It connects cybersafety with overall wellbeing, and focuses
on creating cultures of respect and personal responsibility in addition to providing users with the
practical knowledge to ensure their security. eSmart is underpinned by the positive embrace of information and communications technology and
the promotion of smart use of technology.eSmart calls on schools to foster safe, caring, respectful, supportive and inclusive communities,
in which bullying and aggressive behaviours in all forms are unacceptable. In eSmart schools,
relationships are strong, supportive and learning outcomes are enhanced.Each school is required to examine its practices to ensure it is a genuinely caring and respectful
community as well as adhering to good e-security practices. It develops agreed written protocols
to ensure that all members of the community share an understanding of expected behaviours and
that staff model these in their everyday practice in and out of the classroom.Strong peer relations give students opportunities to develop a sense of meaning and purpose, and
to build and maintain student wellbeing and discourage negative behaviours, including bullying.Students learn to accept and value difference as they interact with one another in same age and
multiple age activities that promote the smart, safe and responsible use of technologies. Schools
are called on to promote and foster these relationships using relationship-based pedagogies.A committee drawn from all areas of the school community provides strong and effective
organisation to guide implementation of systems, structures and planning to ensure a school
reaches and maintains eSmart status.
Contact usThe eSmart help desk is open from 8am – 5pm (Australian Eastern Daylight Time)
Monday to Friday during school term. You can call the help desk on 1300 592 151 or email [email protected]. eSmart’s national office is at The Alannah and Madeline Foundation, Level 1, 6 Charles Street, South Melbourne, Victoria, 3205.

eSmart Starter kit Your school's journey to becoming eSmart
Your school's journey
to becoming eSmart
The design of eSmart ref lects the fact that all schools are different.
Some schools will already have knowledge and actions in place under particular areas of the
framework, while others will be starting from scratch. Still others will have registered for eSmart
because of a specific concern or issue within their school community.
In the planning phase, we expect you to complete requirement 1.1 first. After that the framework
does not require schools to undertake activities in a particular order – for example, starting at
domain attribute 1.2 and working through to domain attribute 6.3. However, there is a broad
approach that we’d recommend all schools take, as depicted in the diagram below.
In each phase, you can work through the six domains in whatever order best matches your school’s
current level of practice or particular focus.
However, you’ll only be acknowledged for completing a phase when you confirm that you’ve met
all the criteria for that phase in the eSmart system tool, and complete the confirmation submission
that we send you, as outlined below.
You can get a quick idea of what stage your school is up to at any time by logging onto the eSmart
system tool.

Trachoma Elimination
Trachoma is a preventable disease which leads to irreversible blindness if not treated. Currently, the Pacific Elimination of Trachoma Program (PacET) is surveying communities across the Pacific to determine the extent of Trachoma in a bid to eliminate it from the region. This is being achieved through the implementation of the SAFE strategy–an innovative public health approach designed to treat and prevent trachoma–which is endorsed by the World Health Organisation. The components of SAFE are: S for Surgery for in-turned eyelids; A for Antibiotics to treat and prevent active infection; F for Facial cleanliness to prevent disease transmission; and E for Environmental change to increase access to water and sanitation.

National Eye Health Program - Cambodia
The National Program for Eye Health works closely with non-government organisations to maximise the effectiveness of programs and ensure that they are in line with national priorities. Cambodia’s national eye health program is
among the most well-coordinated in Asia and the Pacific, contributing to extremely cost effective blindness prevention activities. In 2011 the Ministry of Health budget included approximately $US20,000 for eye care education.

Vision Rehabilitation in Timor-Leste
Building the skills and capacity of mid-level eye care workers and other eye care personnel to deliver quality eye care and vision rehabilitation services is essential in Timor-Leste. For people with irreversible blindness and vision impairment, training programs are being implemented with local partners in orientation and mobility, Braille and other vocational skills to provide opportunities for people to increase their participation in all aspects of life. Through training people like Senor Dominggos, who is vision impaired himself, other people with disabilities are being encouraged to become leaders and role models in their community.

Children’s visionChildren and teachers are benefiting from the development and implementation of school vision screening programs, including infrastructure, promotion and awareness. The goal is to eliminate avoidable blindness due to uncorrected refractive error or through the detection of preventable diseases. Where vision cannot be improved or treated, the provision of appropriate educational and support services are facilitated.

Cross-cutting Principles
Universal access and equity
All people should have equitable access to health care and opportunities to achieve or recover the highest attainable standard of health, regardless of age, gender, or social position.
Human rights
Strategies and interventions for treatment, prevention and promotion must be compliant with international human rights conventions and agreements.
Evidence based practice
Strategies and interventions for treatment, prevention and promotion need to be based on scientific evidence and good practice.
Life course approach
Eye health and related policies, plans and programs need to take account of health and social needs at all stages of the life course.
Empowerment of people with blindness and vision impairment
People who are blind or who have a vision impairment can participate fully in the social, economic, political and cultural aspects of life.
Goal
To reduce avoidable blindness and vision impairment as a global public health problem and secure access to rehabilitation services for people with vision impairment in Asia and the Pacific.
Purpose
To mobilise and support the efforts of governments, civil society and private sector organisations to ensure the development of comprehensive eye care services integrated
in strong health systems throughout Asia and the Pacific.
Vision 2020 Australia: Draft Regional Strategy – 2014 to 2019
VisionA world in which nobody needlessly has a vision impairment, where those with unavoidable vision loss can achieve their full potential, and where there is universal access to comprehensive eye care services.

Monitoring and Advocacy:
Immigration Detention
Program update
The Immigration Detention (ID)
program – resourced through 12 staff
and 30 volunteers across the country
– continues to monitor conditions in
all immigration detention facilities
across Australia and Christmas Island.
The program also advocates on issues
of humanitarian concern at a site level
with DIAC and nationally through
quarterly reporting and meetings
with senior representatives of the
department of immigration.
Days spent visiting detention have
increased significantly to ensure
we are able to effectively monitor a
network that is at capacity and dealing
with the significant changes to policy
relating to people arriving by boat
after 13 August. Teams have been very
busy adjusting to the changes and
monitoring their implementation and
impact on people in detention.
Following the beginning of offshore
processing in Nauru and Manus Island,
Australian Red Cross has been working
with the International Committee
of the Red Cross (ICRC) to ensure a
Movement presence in these facilities
that can provide tracing services and
monitoring of immigration detention
facilities. Following up from an
Australian Red Cross scoping mission
in early November, in late January
an ICRC delegation arrived on Nauru
to undertake a full assessment of
the conditions and wellbeing of
people in detention. Australian Red
Cross supported this visit through an
experienced Humanitarian Observer
from the Immigration Detention
program who provided advice and
expertise around monitoring detention
in the Australian context.
This was an ICRC led visit that
drew on the combined expertise,
knowledge and mandates of ICRC and
Australian Red Cross, supported by the
Movement’s long and proud history
in monitoring conditions of detention
and advocating around issues of
humanitarian concern. Working
together is the most effective way we
can seek to improve the conditions for
vulnerable people in Nauru.
The visit also confirms the
Movement’s commitment to
monitoring the conditions on Nauru
and undertaking confidential dialogue
with the governments of Australia and
Nauru.
Australian Red Cross and ICRC
will continue to work together to
determine the most appropriate
ongoing movement monitoring
arrangement for Nauru.
Similar discussions are progressing
around a Movement presence on
Manus Island, PNG.
In December, the ID program also
participated in an ICRC Migrants in
Detention workshop for National
Societies in Geneva. Australian Red
Cross presented on the scope of our
ID work, and the systems and tools
we have in place to ensure consistent
and evidence based monitoring and
advocacy. The workshop addressed
many of the emerging global issues
in immigration detention and starting
greater resource sharing.
Please contact Vicki Mau, National
Program Coordinator, if you would like
more information.

MSP Casework Model and Good Practice GuidesThe MSP Casework Model and Good Practice Guides were launched in December, the first of a number of resources being developed over the coming year to help staff in their delivery of a quality service to our clients. These resources will help guide our work in a complex and sometimes challenging environment and will enable a nationally-consistent approach to our casework.
The Casework Model aims to guide our approach to casework, outlining how we support clients made vulnerable through the process of migration. The document provides a broad framework and includes our strengths-based approach to casework
practice (consistent with the Ways of Working), the scope of casework processes and our commitment to further building competent and professional program delivery.The Good Practice Guides sit alongside the Casework Model and provide practical and specific guidelines to support caseworkers in their everyday work. There are currently 11 Good Practice Guides with more under development.
The Casework Model and Good Practice Guides have been produced following much input from staff, have been researched thoroughly and consulted across MSP nationally. We expect their use will continue to position Red Cross as a leader in casework support in the migration sector. These casework resources are available on the MSP pages of the wiki under Casework Resources.
MSP celebrates International Volunteer DayIn early December Red Cross celebrated International Volunteer Day with MSP volunteer recognition events taking place around the country. In Victoria a breakfast was held for MSP volunteers, while in Queensland and the ACT, MSP volunteers attended breakfasts for volunteers across Red Cross. In Western Australia there was a bbq and picnics were held in Tasmania and South Australia.
A survey of MSP volunteers in 2012 found that the vast majority of our volunteers feel connected to the broader social relevance of their roles, feel valued within their teams and enjoy volunteering with Red Cross. Of the survey respondents, more than 87% agreed or strongly agreed that they felt valued and respected by staff in their team. As one volunteer said, “I love volunteering for Red Cross, the way you treat your volunteers is fantastic. You make it a joy to come in”.There is more we can and must do to support the active engagement of volunteers across Migration Support Programs building on the significant work undertaken over recent years.
The contribution of volunteers to Migration Support Programs is appreciated and we hope that these International Volunteer Day events go some way to recognising the important role volunteers play in our program activities.

Good Practice Guide MIGRATION SUPPORT PROGRAMS (MSP)
1. Working with Clients on complex and uncertain Visa pathways.
Version 1 - December 2012
Purpose For many MSP clients the refugee (or other non-standard visa) determination and immigration status resolution process can be complex and protracted. The client experience of this process is often characterised by considerable uncertainty, hope and dread.
© Australian Red Cross 2012
Working with asylum seekers and others awaiting status resolution involves many casework challenges, including very different challenges to those of refugee settlement support work. The role of Red Cross is to provide humanitarian support; it does not offer migration legal services or advice. In order to safeguard its independence and neutrality, Red Cross does not play a role in decisions about visa determination.
The purpose of this Good Practice Guide is to provide some guidelines for caseworkers in working with clients on complex and uncertain visa pathways.

Migration Support Update
Welcome to the first issue of the MSP Update for 2013.
With the new year well underway our focus has turned to the imminent Department of Immigration and Citizenship (DIAC) tender process.
Late last year DIAC advised of its intention to release a new tender to provide support services to vulnerable clients while they resolve their immigration status. The new tender is expected to be released at the end of March and while it is difficult to anticipate the requirements of the tender before it is released, Red Cross has been working for sometime in anticipation of a tender for these services. We have now established a team to lead the tender, appointed a steering committee to oversee decision making and contracted external consultants to support development of the services model we will propose for the future. We are keen to engage people as work progresses and will be meeting with MSP managers and coordinators in coming weeks to get their input.
In the meantime we continue with our ‘business as usual’, including providing support to asylum
seekers in the community, visiting immigration detention facilities and working with people who are trafficked, those that have lost connection with families and others made vulnerable as a result of migration.
Inside this issue you will read more about the work the Immigration Detention program is undertaking monitoring conditions in detention centres and shaping a Red Cross Movement presence in offshore processing centres. You will read about some of the positive outcomes of our Support for Trafficked People Program including how clients are empowered as a result of our strengths-based approach. And you will also read about the everyday work of one of our caseworkers in advocating for her clients.
The work you do everyday continues to make a very real difference to the lives of vulnerable people in our society and is something for us all to take pride in.

As global markets continue to expand, pressure
increases to find new and improved ways to
approach areas such as manufacturing, logistics
and product development. This is forcing
business leaders to embrace innovation; taking
calculated risks to remain at the leading edge of
the industry.
To some innovation is perceived as a risk, we
believe doing nothing is a risk. We specialise in
providing solutions when “off the shelf” applications
fail to meet business requirements.

The Alannah and Madeline Foundation is a national charity protecting children from violence and bullying and its devastating impacts.
The Foundation was set up in memory of Alannah and Madeline Mikac, aged six and three, who were tragically killed along with their mother and 32 others at Port Arthur, Tasmania on 28 April 1996.
The Foundation cares for children who have experienced or witnessed serious violence, runs programs that prevent bullying and violence in the lives of children and, advocates for children’s safety and wellbeing.
Our vision is that every
child will live in a safe and
supportive environment.
about us

Walter Mikac
Starry Starry Night is here again and I wish everyone a warm welcome. This has been the main fundraising event since the beginning of the Foundation in 1997, and hence pivotal to all the brilliant programs that we run for children. From my heart, I thank you for your generous support.
The Alannah and Madeline Foundation was established one year after Alannah, six, and Madeline, three, along with their mum, Nanette, died at Port Arthur in 1996. From humble beginnings and with massive community and corporate support, we have grown to be one of the major children’s charities in Australia. Our school-based programs like Better Buddies and eSmart are incredible tools to protect our children and give them a safe community to thrive in.
The ultimate goal of Starry Starry Night is for people to enjoy themselves and have a fantastic night out, whilst remembering my beautiful daughters, Alannah and Madeline. Their love and laughter lives on through everyone here tonight. Thank you, and enjoy.
The origin of our logo
Our logo has a very special meaning for The Alannah and Madeline Foundation because it was created using part of a family portrait drawn by Alannah Mikac just months before Port Arthur.
Our logo is Alannah and her little sister Madeline, holding hands.

23Consultation findingsTalking rights: Consulting with Victoria’s Indigenous community about the right to self-determination and the Charter22
Although the individual must have the will and desire to achieve his or her future aspirations in a self-determining context, it was acknowledged in the majority of discussions that there are many political, social, economic and environmental factors impacting on the achievement of self-determination. These environmental, historic and social circumstances, often external to the individual, limit the individual’s ability to genuinely practise his or her right to self-determination and choose the ‘determined path’.
“I think you need that push to go out there, and you need someone telling you can do this. Even if it’s not your own parents … just someone to give you that confidence and that boost.”
In a number of consultations, specific definitions provided by participants on ‘what self-determination means’ recognised the history of Indigenous people in Australia. History is an important part of Indigenous culture and is a further important element in defining self-determination that reflects the unique characteristics of Indigenous people. This is represented in the comments made by consultation participants set out below.
“Self-determination. Recognising our past as our past, but never forget it ... acceptance not denial of the struggle we’ve all endured. Believe that our culture is still alive and not forgotten.”
“Self-determination is about continuing our ancestors’ struggle to control our own DESTINY/FUTURE.”
“Living in the Grey World! Learning to blend between both worlds, never forgetting grassroots.”
ConclusionConsultation participants easily engaged with the broad statement that self-determination referred to ‘the ability to have control over one’s destiny’ as Indigenous peoples (as provided in the Behrendt and Vivian occasional paper prepared for the 2009 Charter Report). The majority of participants were in general acceptance that this is broadly what self-determination means. Further discussion recognised the relevance of the detail that is outlined in the UN Declaration of Rights of Indigenous Peoples, which recognises self-determination in a broad context, and similarly in the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights and the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights.
What is not included in the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights and the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (international covenants regarding self-determination) are a recognition of unique characteristics that self-determination may hold for Indigenous people: for example, ‘to live life as an Indigenous person’. Although the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights and International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights acknowledge all persons, the specific reference made by the UN Declaration of Rights for Indigenous Peoples to ‘Indigenous People’ makes some acknowledgment that there may be unique barriers, enablers or aspects of self-determination relevant only to Indigenous persons.
Furthermore, the strong reference in the consultation to the history (or ‘the past’) for Indigenous Victorians may suggest that a specific reference to acknowledge the impact of historical events is required. This is captured in detail in the Behrendt and Vivian occasional paper prepared for the 2009 Charter Report, reflecting the importance of considering history when discussing the rights of Indigenous persons.
3. Behrendt and Vivian occasional paper prepared for the 2009 Charter Report:
It should be recognised from the outset that the concept of self-determination is not an easy one to define. While it generally may be agreed that it rests on a foundation of control of one’s future destiny – whether as an individual or as a community – what that precisely involves depends upon the aspirations of the individual or group involved, making it difficult to pin down.11
Where conversations focused on ‘needs’ or ‘goals’, the discussion was often centred on individual perspectives and circumstances, making specific reference to social and economic needs. This conversation commonly translated to a ‘whole of community’ need or ‘whole of Indigenous peoples’ need, with collective references commonly made when discussing cultural or political rights and the need for acknowledgement of inherent rights or the unique status held by Indigenous peoples.
In discussions relating to the definition of self-determination, commonly people would engage with the definition ‘control over one’s future destiny’ (as outlined in the Behrendt and Vivian occasional paper prepared for the 2009 Charter Report). As such, the conversation would suggest that self-determination is up to the individual to define, implying that ‘future destiny’ may reflect the diversity of the social and economic needs discussed above – that is, self-determination is an individual journey. In a small number of conversations a collective approach to self-determination was discussed with reference to ‘what we need as Indigenous peoples’. In these cases, reference was
again made to cultural and political rights and to inherent rights as Indigenous peoples: for example, the right to participate in decision making, the right to free and informed consent, and the right to access traditional lands. A small number of discussions further explored the relationship between such collective rights and their ability to impact individual goals and needs.
“Self-determination is what each of us makes it as individual people. Because we all have a different view on the meaning.”
Some discussions spoke of specific rights that need to be acknowledged or protected in the self-determination context; others spoke of rights as ‘enablers’ to achieving ‘their own destinies’.
“Education for our young people is our future.”
Acknowledging that there are barriers to self-determination, some considered the individual to be the key to overcoming these barriers and achieving self-determination:
Facilitator question: “Can we really have anything/everything?”
“Can’t see why not? I don’t see why not if you want it.”
Facilitator question: “What’s holding people back?”
“The individual is holding themselves back.”

WelcomeThe National Centre Against Bullying (NCAB) is an initiative of The Alannah and Madeline Foundation. NCAB brings together a group of leading experts in the field of bullying to draw national attention to the issue of bullying at school, work, in the community and at home.
CHAIRMAN’S MESSAGE
KEYNOTE SPEAKERS
The National Centre Against Bullying (NCAB), an initiative of The Alannah and Madeline Foundation, is pleased to present the 5th biennial NCAB Conference, ‘Social Media, Bullying and Vulnerability: Connect. Respect. Protect.’ at the Melbourne Convention Centre 15-16 June 2012.
Bullying is a serious issue in Australian society. This year’s conference themes are based on research that shows vulnerable young people, including children with a disability, are more likely to be bullied on and offline. Sixty-two per cent of children with autism spectrum disorder
are bullied. This should be of great concern to the community.
This conference will discuss the latest research and strategies that teachers, psychologists, social workers, parents and the general community, can put in place to help minimise bullying and cyberbullying. The conference will also explore the positive ways young people use social media for connecting, learning and creating.
This year, we are thrilled to welcome keynote speakers Professor Ian Rivers (United Kingdom), Dr Colleen McLaughlin (United Kingdom), Nina Funnell (Australia)
and Professor Donna Cross (Australia) who will present on the topics of social media, bullying and vulnerability.
We thank you for your support and look forward to seeing you at this year’s NCAB conference.
Yours sincerely,
Alastair Nicholson AO RFD QC, NCAB Chairman and Former Chief Justice of the Family Court of Australia

Dr Colleen McLaughlin (United Kingdom)
In her keynote address, Dr Colleen
McLaughlin will explore the topic, ‘Bullying, difference and disability - research and viewpoints’.
Dr McLaughlin will highlight a systematic review on bullying and students with special educational needs and disability, commissioned in the UK by the Anti-Bullying Alliance at the National Children’s Bureau, London, and the Department for Education (UK).
