Sahar Faghidno	Professor Svetlana Bogomolova, Professor Ian Goodwin-Smith, Professor John Coveney, Dr Tahna Pettman & Jon Buckley	Exploring Food Relief Clients’ Journeys, Experiences, and Outcomes Across the Social Support System in South Australia	Approximately 13% of Australians are reporting being food insecure – that is they do not have enough access to nutritious and safe food. Food insecurity stems from poverty and social exclusion, commonly addressed by food relief. To address underlying causes of food insecurity, researchers should understand food relief clients’ experiences and journeys across the system and other intersecting sectors, and over a longer period of time, ideally a lifetime. This thesis comprising of three studies: a scoping review of a customer journey method, a customer journey mapping study (using in-depth interviews), and a client outcomes evaluation of a social supermarket food relief model. Findings demonstrate that the system is disjointed, and establishing a first point-of-contact for information and system navigation could help people access resources early prevent their situations from worsening. Food relief services should employ person-centred approaches and provide individualised support, connecting people to services and social opportunities.

Mr David Koch AM	Doctor of the University	Born in Adelaide, David Koch AM began his career in the early 1980s as a financial journalist, initially at The Australian before joining Business Review Weekly magazine soon after its launch. He was a pioneer of consumer finance journalism in Australia, using his newfound momentum to launch Personal Investment magazine, which made him the youngest editor in the Fairfax Media group. He successfully migrated the masthead to New Zealand and the United Kingdom, as well as starting Britain's first ‘rich list’ in Money Magazine. His career has spanned finance, business, media, and sport. In 1988, he launched trade publishing group Australian Financial Press in a joint venture with Fairfax Media, leading to his role as Director of NSW Small Business Development Corporation Ltd for eight years after its inception in 1996. In 2007, Koch launched Pinstripe Media, a video production and content marketing agency that manages a network of sites including Startup Daily, Flying Solo and Kochie's Business Builders. In 2013, he launched KBB Digital, a digital marketing agency for small businesses which is an extension of the Kochie's Business Builders brand. In 2020, Koch launched Ausbiz in partnership with Kylie Merritt, an Australian business and finance streaming platform. In 2023, he joined Compare the Market Australia as Economic Director. Koch became Chairman and Director of Port Adelaide Football Club in 2013 and is also on the Brand and Marketing committee. Aside from his many business ventures, Koch or ‘Kochie’ has become a well-known TV personality and was co-host of Seven Network's Sunrise breakfast program for 21 years, from 2002 until 2023. He and his original co-host, Melissa Doyle, hosted the program over a period that saw viewer ratings grow, making Sunrise the leading breakfast television show in Australia. In August 2022, the Seven Network released a statement declaring Sunrise had won the breakfast TV ratings in its timeslot for the 19th year in a row. In May of the following year, Koch announced he would leave the program to spend time with family and to further commit to his role at Port Adelaide. After a 21-year tenure, he is Australia's longest-serving breakfast television host, having broadcast more than 16,000 hours of live TV across 5,300 episodes, and conducted more than 50,000 interviews. In 2024, David was appointed chair of the South Australian Tourism Commission. Koch was nominated for a silver Logie in 2004 and 2005 for Best TV Presenter. In 2007, readers of Banking and Finance Magazine voted Koch Australia's Best Finance Journalist, while the Council of Small Business Organisations of Australia presented him with the Small Business Champion award in recognition of his support for Australian small business. Koch was named 2007 Australian Father of the Year by the Australian Father's Day Council. In 2024, Koch was honoured with the Order of Australia (AM) for significant service to media as a television presenter and to economic journalism. Using his profile for good, Koch has long held a passion for finding innovative ways to give back to the community. He has climbed Mt Kilimanjaro twice to raise money for charity and has walked the Kokoda Track. He is a patron of Youth Off The Streets' Koch Centre For Youth and Learning in Sydney's Macquarie Fields. He has also been involved with the Channel Seven Perth Telethon, an annual event raising money for charities, including the Perth Children's Hospital and Melbourne's Good Friday Appeal, raising money for the Royal Children's Hospital. Through a Sunrise campaign and his involvement in ShareLife, Koch influenced the federal government to establish a national authority (the Organ & Tissue Authority) to oversee Australia's organ transplant system. As a passionate South Australian, David Koch AM is a richly deserving recipient of an Honorary Doctor of the University from Flinders University in recognition as one of Australia's most prominent financial commentators and media professionals who continues to use his extensive expertise to advocate for small business and to promote South Australia as a destination of choice.
