    Abstract Mental ill health is a major health risk for young people. There is unmet need for mental health assessment and treatment across Australia despite significant investment in government-funded plans to cover mental health and youth-oriented services. Understandings of mental health care for young people are impeded by a lack of longitudinal research. Without this research, it is difficult to understand how services do or do not support the recovery of young people over time. This project will analyse the healthcare journeys of young people aged 16-25 years experiencing their first episode of mental ill health for which they have sought GP support, over 12 months in the Australian Capital Territory. The study team will recruit up to 25 diverse young people and their general practitioners (GPs), and conduct four qualitative semi-structured interviews over 12 months with each participant. GP interviews will explore their role in the mental health care and care coordination for the young person. Interviews with young people will explore experiences and perceptions of navigating the health system, and the supports and resources they engaged with during the 12-month period. In between interviews, young people will be asked to keep a record of their mental health care experiences, through their choice of media. Participant-produced materials will also form the basis for interviews, providing stimuli to discuss the lived experience of care. Through analysing the narratives of both young people and their GPs, the study will establish how young people understand value in mental health care delivery. The study will use longitudinal qualitative mapping of healthcare journeys to identify key barriers and enablers to establishing effective, person-centred health care for young people with mental ill health.

    Abstract Increasing urbanisation has led to a greater use of artificial structures by bats as alternative roost sites. Despite the widespread presence of bats, roost availability may restrict their distribution and abundance in urban environments. There is limited quantitative information on the drivers of bat roost selection and roosting preferences, particularly in African bats. We explore the factors influencing roost selection in the Mauritian tomb bat (Taphozous mauritianus), within an urban landscape in Lilongwe city, Malawi. Eight building and five landscape features of roosts were compared with both adjacent and random control buildings throughout the city. Bat occupied buildings were situated closer to woodland (mean 709m) compared to random buildings (mean 1847m) but did not differ in any other landscape features explored. Roosts were situated on buildings with larger areas and taller walls, suggesting bats select features for predator-avoidance and acoustic perception when leaving the roost. Bats preferred buildings with exposed roof beams which may provide refuge from disturbance. Whilst roosts are situated more often on brick walls, this feature was also associated with landscape features, therefore its importance in roost selection is less clear. These results are indicative that T. mauritianus selects roosts at both the building and landscape level. The selectivity of T. mauritianus in relation to its roost sites implies that preferred roosts are a limited resource, and as such, conservation actions should focus on protecting roost sites and the woodland bats rely on.
