Stroke continues to place a heavy burden on Australians, especially those from culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) backgrounds, with a stroke occurring every 11 minutes. Yet, new research led by University of Wollongong (UOW) Ph.D. candidate Shegaw Zeleke has found a striking paradox: despite the disproportionate impact of stroke on CALD communities, stroke care guidelines worldwide lack cultural recommendations.

Parents and caregivers often hear a child say, "I don't want to go to school." But when this becomes a regular occurrence, it may be a sign of school avoidance, also known as school refusal, which may be a sign of emotional distress.
