With reference to monthly coffee price data (Jan. 2006-Apr. 2014) for the world indicator prices and retail prices in the US, this paper analyzes how the variations observed at the coffee world market price level pass on the coffee retail price. Unit root tests of the series under study reveal that all the series are non-stationary at level and stationary after first difference. The result of Johansen test indicates the existence of one cointegration relation between the variables and there is long-term dynamics between coffee retail and world price. Granger causality test indicates that there is transmission of price signals from the world market to the local retail market.
Creating Things of Fire & Ash: Working with Vulnerable CommunitiesKate Spinks
When a group of young people affected by the 2009 Black Saturday bushfires were asked to tell their stories for an exhibition at the Victoria Police Museum it created an organic process of healing for both them and their families that was unexpected and deeply meaningful.
This paper, which was presented at the 2014 Victorian Museums & Galleries Conference held in Warrnambool,(Victoria, Australia), describes the development of the project from initial contact with staff and young people from the Wominjeka Youth Centre in Kinglake to the final reveal when young people and their families saw the exhibition for the first time.
Discussion covers the collaborative process, curatorial approach, practical decisions making, dealing with sensitive and confronting issues and maintaining an ongoing relationship with members of the community.
