Poetry Month with Evelyn Araluen, ageism in the music industry, corporate social responsibility and the Rana Plaza garment factory collapse, voices of parents with intellectual disability

Wednesday, 10 August 2022 - 7:00am to 8:30am

7.00am Acknowledgement of Country

7.03am We celebrate Poetry Month with a look back at Evelyn Araluen's poetry collection Dropbear. Evelyn spoke to Carly from 3CR Breakfast earlier this year and we revisit this conversation here. For poetry events and workshops, go to  https://redroompoetry.org

7.18am We hear about ageism in the music industry. Comments on ageing in the music industry late last year sparked much discussion about the issue, since then it seems little has changed. Rose from 3CR's Satellite Skies looks at the statistics behind the reality. 

7.34am Claudia speaks with Professor Jeremy Moon, Director of the Sustainability Centre and Professor of Sustainability Governance at the Copenhagen Business School. Professor Moon was a visiting professor at the The Gourlay Ethics in Business Week hosted by the University of Melbourne's Trinity College earlier this year. He speaks about corporate social responsibility in relation to modern slavery, in particular, the international corporate response to the collapse of the Rana Plaza garment factories in Bangladesh in 2013.

8:13am 3CR's Raising our Voices programme is the longest running radio show made by and for people living with disability. Tonight the show celebrates its 35th birthday! We celebrate the milestone with a look back at an episode featuring members of the Positive Powerful Parents group, a support group set up by parents with intellectual disabilities to keep their children. Susan Arthur and Heather Smith speak about the group and their desire for the Victorian Government to commit to ending the discrimination of parents with intellectual disability. You can hear the full conversation at Raising our Voices. https://www.3cr.org.au/raisingourvoices/episode/what-does-self-advocacy-mean-people-disability
