OK, pop quiz.

Which of these snakes is the most poisonous?

The King Cobra, the Black Mamba, the Banded Krait, or the Garter snake?

Before you answer, let's think about that question.

Which snake is the most poisonous?

Is that the same thing as asking which snake is the most venomous?

I'm pretty sure poison and venom are different, right?

We hear about poisonous snakes and poisonous spiders all the time.

But usually what people mean is venomous.

Venomous animals inject toxins into their victims,

while poisonous animals are toxic when they're eaten.

So which snake is the most poisonous?

Not the Cobra or the Mamba or the Krait?

They're all deadly, but they're all venomous.

The only poisonous snake here is the normally harmless Garter snake.

If something's dangerous because of a toxic bite or sting,

well, that's what scientists call venomous.

The snake with the world's deadliest venom is the Inland Taipan, also called

the Western Taipan, or the fierce snake.

Fierce is right because this snake's fangs can deliver a deadly combination of neurotoxins,

procoagulate, and myotoxins that can quickly kill

a human who doesn't receive medical treatment.

And it's not just snakes and spiders that have venom.

Venomous animals include stingrays, scorpion fish, gila monsters, bees, scorpions,

and jellyfish among others.

There are even cute, furry animals that happen to be venomous.

The male platypus has fang-like spurs on its ankles that inject a painful venom.

Poisonous animals are a little different.

A poisonous animal doesn't make you sick by biting you.

It makes you sick when you bite it.

Poisonous animals have toxins in their skin or other tissues that attack a predator's body

when touched or ingested.

These toxins may not be injected into you the way that venoms are,

but they can still be deadly.

Poisonous animals include most amphibians, such as frogs, toads, newts, and salamanders.

Those newts and salamanders, by the way, happen to be the reason that the Garter

snake won our little competition earlier.

Garter snakes eat these poisonous amphibians, and their toxins

build up in the Garter snake's body.

Hey, waste not, want not, right?

POLICY How Can I Make a Difference - Duration: 5:25.

Okay. So we spent quite a bit of time looking at what policies are, how they

should get made, how they actually get made, and all kinds of different factors

that come into play which often mean that the rational logical thing

doesn't happen. And so the question that everyone is probably feeling now is, "Oh, God,

can I actually do any of this?" And the answer is "Yes, you can." From my

experience, policy change can take a while but it

does happen. And persistence and effective networking and good research and

continued effort - it does pay off. So I want everyone to feel very positive

about the fact that they can make a difference. But sometimes it's also about

understanding who you are and what your role is so that you don't

have too high expectations of yourself but also at the same time we don't have

too low expectations too. We will talk a little bit about that now. Thanks.

So one of the things that we'll be wanting to look at - and we'll be doing

this through the workshops and through the face-to-face sessions - is to get you

really thinking about what your role is around policy, around dementia care. And

we'll be looking at some of the key issues in the policy workshops about how

you would go about understanding the problem, making good connections, building

a network of like-minded people, and then trying to influence and change policy.

And we'll try and make it very practical and hands-on with people

who've been involved in changing policy in different countries, some of them with

a lot of experience in dementia care, some of them just experienced more

broadly with policy and healthcare policy. And it's partly

around two things, I guess, it's partly around giving you the toolkit, the

necessary skills that you need under your belt so you can go and try and

influence policy. But it's also giving you an understanding and a

realization that you are, you know, that you're only one person, and that one

person by yourself probably won't be able to change policy. But one person in

a collaboration, one person in a team, part of a coalition, you probably

can in time. So it's really about getting you to identify what

are your own strengths. Is your strength in research, in bringing evidence to play?

Are you a policy entrepreneur who can actually go out and make things happen?

Are you a policymaker or a manager who can help with the implementation?

So it's really about knowing where are you: Are you good at

communicating with people? Can you influence how people think or look at

things? So I think if you know your strengths, it allows you to

understand what role you can play in the process and who you will need to link in

with in terms of other skill sets and different strengths and different

power that different, other people have, who you need to link in with in order to

get a policy over the line. So we're thinking a lot about, yes, giving you

tools but understanding also that you need to be part of a broader policy team.

You need to be part of a coalition which is advocating for good change,

particularly around dementia care policy.

And then finally I just want to leave you with this idea of different elements

in the policy-making process. Sometimes it's quite difficult to get things onto

the table. So, in other words, for policymakers to consider it, for

policymakers to even discuss it, getting it on the table for in-live discussion

with the people who are making policy is a whole art in itself, an agenda setting.

And how you do that, how you use media to do that, or how you use key spokespeople, key

policy experts, or key individuals have, who have lots of trusted

capital to speak out on certain issues - that's a whole set of issues. Then

there's the actual decision-making process itself: How that happens? Who's

there at the table? What kind of evidence can be used? And what kind of, what

are the key arguments and skills that can win people over? And then of course

there's the implementation stage, and how you resource it, how you think it through,

how you make sure it actually happens, and you're communicating well and people

have sufficient buy-in. All those different stages need different skills.

And I'm convinced that if you're on this program, you will be able to input and

least into one of those and possibly into more. But it's also about finding

other people who can also complement you in that process. So be courageous. Be

strong. You can make a difference. And we're going to equip you as much as we

can so that you can go and do that and have realistic expectations of what you can achieve.

So once more unto the breach dear friends once more.
