The occupational therapy profession faces similar critiques of epistemic and hegemonic blind spots, prompting calls for critical reflection on professional assumptions. Drawing on narratives and guided by Whiteford's Occupational Justice PLUS model, we explore how learnings from community members' responses to a bushfire event could broaden our understanding of occupational, epistemic, and hermeneutic justice in the context of disasters and, more broadly, other injustices.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This qualitative study used a phenomenological hermeneutical approach to explore narratives of disaster recovery. Data included a written narrative from \u2018Doing Our Best\u2019 and the film \u2018We Are Conjola\u2019. Analysis followed Lindseth and Norberg's three\u2010step process: na\u00efve reading, structural analysis of themes, and comprehensive interpretation informed by literature and theories.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Findings<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Findings revealed interconnected injustices. Occupational injustice arose from restricted access to resources during bushfire response and recovery, with community\u2010led initiatives critical to restoring occupational justice. Epistemic injustice was evident in government disregard for climate science and Indigenous knowledge, compounded by media erasure, prompting the community to create its own narrative through film. Hermeneutic injustice occurred when aspects of social identity were obscured from collective understanding; residents responded through artistic expression to reclaim identity, share lived experience, and communicate systemic failures.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Discussion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Community\u2010driven action addressed occupational, epistemic, and hermeneutic injustices following the Conjola bushfire. These findings highlight the relevance of the Occupational Justice PLUS model for disaster contexts, emphasising the need for occupational therapists to adopt critical, justice\u2010oriented approaches that privilege community voice and foster community\u2010led action in disaster recovery and knowledge creation.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Advocacy for community voice and future research on applying the Occupational Justice PLUS model are essential to support inclusive, community\u2010driven recovery and strengthen knowledge creation in disaster contexts.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/1440-1630.70131","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,10,7]],"date-time":"2026-10-07T13:31:14Z","timestamp":1791379874000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Occupational Justice PLUS: From theoretical salience to practical application\u2014An analysis of community narratives from a bushfire event"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"73","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0034-700X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Eliza","family":"Huppatz","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Allied Health and Human Performance Adelaide University  Adelaide South Australia Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6383-6313","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Carol","family":"McKinstry","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Rural Department of Allied Health La Trobe University  Bendigo Victoria Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6136-1844","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Gail","family":"Whiteford","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Allied Health, Sport and Exercise Sciences Charles Sturt University  Port Macquarie New South Wales Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8646-1849","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Emma","family":"George","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Allied Health and Human Performance Adelaide University  Adelaide South Australia Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,10,7]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_11_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1590\/2526-8910.ctoao2426316302"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/1440-1630.70081"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/09638288.2025.2524844"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1590\/2526-8910.ctoao24533211"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/1440-1630.12078"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/0308022618795594"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4322\/2526-8910.ctoARF2175"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/03080226241239564"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/00084174211005891"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/1539449216665561"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/14427591.2022.2061890"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/0308022619862111"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","DOI":"10.1093\/acprof:oso\/9780198237907.001.0001","volume-title":"Epistemic injustice: Power and the ethics of knowing","author":"Fricker M.","year":"2007"},{"issue":"1","key":"e_1_2_11_15_1","first-page":"14","article-title":"The epistemological non\u2010sense of disaster studies and some more sensible prospects","volume":"37","author":"Gaillard J.
