�鶹��madou

Members of the �鶹��madou community from an array of disciplines are among the 933 Australians who received Queen’s Birthday Honours announced on Monday��by Governor-General the Hon. David Hurley.

Ms Natalie Camilleri, who graduated from a Bachelor of Town Planning from �鶹��madou Built Environment in 2001, received a Public Service Medal for outstanding public service to infrastructure projects in New South Wales. Ms Camilleri, who was awarded the University Medal and First-Class Honours while at �鶹��madou, is the Executive Director – City Planning Infrastructure at the Greater Sydney Commission.

Ms Camilleri was recognised for driving “positive change and enduring outcomes for both people and places during her 20-year career in the New South Wales Public Service. Most recently at the Greater Sydney Commission, she has been instrumental in the development and testing of the new Place-based Infrastructure Compact model.

“Ms Camilleri's Place-based Infrastructure Compact model has been described as a game-changer in the integration of land use and infrastructure planning and the impact of her efforts has the potential to be both profound and enduring.”

�鶹��madou Deputy Vice-Chancellor, Research, Professor Nicholas Fisk, was also made��a Member of the Order of Australia (AM) for significant service to tertiary education, and to maternal-fetal medicine.

The young Queensland twins, a boy and a girl, were identified as only the second set of semi-identical twins in the world – and the first to be identified by doctors during pregnancy. The now four-year-old twins share 100 per cent��of their mother’s genes, but are like siblings on their father’s side, sharing a proportion of their father’s DNA.
