Biography
Dr Kingsley is a Senior Lecturer in Health Promotion (Swinburne University of Technology). Dr Kingsley has dedicated the better part of the past decade working in Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Organisations, government bodies, academic institutes and NGO’s across Australia in the public health and community development field. Jonathan sees our natural environment as central to health and having the capacity to bridge health inequalities (the basis of his Honours, Masters, PhD and previous Visiting Academic position at Cambridge University). Jonathan views himself as not only an academic but also an activist publishing many journal articles, lecturing and tutoring, having experience in program management in the government, community and NGO sector, reviewing peer-reviewed journals, winning environment awards (most notably at Parks Victoria and the International Association for Ecology and Health) and sitting on multiple steering committees related to Indigenous and environmental health. Having worked with culturally diverse Aboriginal communities for over 13 years, and, as a non-Indigenous person, Jonathan always attempts to listen to others to understand different worldviews, identify barriers and resolve issues in a respectful manner to cultivate trust and cooperation.
