Remote Housing Review Remote Housing Review A review of the National Partnership Agreement on Remote Indigenous Housing and the Remote Housing Strategy (2008-2018) Artwork by Ashlee Burns who is a proud descendant of the Gunggandji and Kuku Djungan people. ‘The artwork was influenced strongly by the nature and land of Australia. The curved parallel lines, also known as stratum, were inspired by sedimentary layers of rock that can be found deep within the earth. All the colours used throughout are representative of the beautiful Australian landscape and the diversity of the earth found across our nation. The use of a stratum lines is meant to represent the many layers found within Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander history. While the blue symbolises oceans and rivers, the green, orange and the yellow represents the land. Together these elements encapsulate all the differing communities of Australia.’ Copyright Statement ________________________________________________________________________________________ Remote Housing Review: A review of the National Partnership Agreement on Remote Indigenous Housing and the Remote Housing Strategy (2008-2018) © Commonwealth of Australia 2017 ISBN 978-1-925362-68-8 Remote Housing Review: A review of the National Partnership Agreement on Remote Indigenous Housing and the Remote Housing Strategy (2008-2018) (PDF) ISBN 978-1-925362-69 Remote Housing Review: A review of the National Partnership Agreement on Remote Indigenous Housing and the Remote Housing Strategy (2008-2018) (DOCX) ISBN 978-1-925362-70-1 Remote Housing Review: A review of the National Partnership Agreement on Remote Indigenous Housing and the Remote Housing Strategy (2008-2018) Print Version Copyright Notice With the exception of the Commonwealth Coat of Arms, this work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International licence (CC BY 4.0)( https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ ).

  • Store Nutrition Report and Market Basket Survey.Pdf
    Store Nutrition Report and Market Basket Survey April 2014 Nganampa Health Council Erin McLean, Kate Annat and Prof Amanda Lee April 2014 Executive Summary The report provides Market Basket pricing and data analysis of Mai Wiru compliance with standardised food and nutrition checklists from stores on the Anangu Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara (APY) Lands in South Australia collected in April 2014. The report focuses on the Mai Wiru group stores (Pipalyatjara, Kanpi, Amata, Fregon and Pukatja). Pricing data was also collected from Mimili (Outback Stores), Indulkana (independent) and Coles and IGA Foodlands supermarkets in Alice Springs. The purpose of this report is to provide key recommendations for Mai Wiru store councils to aid decision-making regarding food and nutrition issues. Data was collected in-store from 7-11 April 2014. Information was collected on the price, availability and promotion of foods, as well as Mai Wiru store achievement of the Remote Indigenous Stores and Takeaways (RIST) checklist benchmarks and implementation of nutrition recommendations from the previous Market Basket report (September, 2013). Nutrition promotion activities were also performed in all the Mai Wiru stores, including one pot cooking demonstrations and installation of sugar-in-food displays and posters. Results show that, in April 2014, Mai Wiru stores: • Are clean, functional and well stocked; • Provide a wide range of healthy foods and beverages; and • Price healthy foods at a competitive rate for remote areas. In April 2014 the average price of the Market Basket in the Mai Wiru stores was $734 dollars and had increased only 0.3% since September 2014. In comparison to the other stores monitored during the same period the Mai Wiru store prices were 4.3% less than Mimili, 1.0% more than Indulkana, only 13.0% more than Alice Springs IGA Foodlands and 34.4% more than Coles.

Institutionalisation of Aborigines, under the guise of assimilation and protection policies, was only abandoned in.the lg7Os. It is therefore important to understand the implications of these policies for Aborigines and Australian society in general. I investigate the affect of institutionalisation on Aborigines, questioning the assumption tl.at they were passive victims forced onto missions and government stations and kept there as virtual prisoners.

  • Far Removed: an Insight Into the Labour Markets of Remote Communities in Central Australia
    145 AUSTRALIAN JOURNAL OF LABOUR ECONOMICS VOLUME 19 • NUMBER 3 • 2016 Far Removed: An Insight into the Labour Markets of Remote Communities in Central Australia Michael Dockery, Curtin Business School Judith Lovell, Charles Darwin University Abstract There are ongoing debates about the livelihoods of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians living in remote communities, and the role for policy in addressing socio- economic equity and the economic viability of those communities. The characteristics and dynamics of remote labour markets are important parameters in many of these debates. However, remote economic development discourses are often conducted with limited access to empirical evidence of the actual functioning of labour markets in remote communities – evidence that is likely to have important implications for the efficacy of policy alternatives. Unique survey data collected from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders living in 21 remote communities in central Australia for the Cooperative Research Centre for Remote Economic Participation’s Population Mobility and Labour Markets project are used to examine these labour markets, with a focus on the role of education and training. Examining access to education, employment opportunity and other structural factors, it is clear that the reality of economic engagement in these communities is far removed from the functioning of mainstream labour markets. The assumptions about, or lack of distinction between remote and urban locations, have contributed to misunderstanding of the assets and capabilities remote communities have, and aspire to develop. Evidence from the survey data on a number of fronts is interpreted to suggest policies to promote employment opportunity within communities offer greater potential for improving the livelihoods of remote community residents than policies reliant on the assumption that residents will move elsewhere for work.
