    Photovoice Evaluated: an Appropriate Visual Methodology for Aboriginal Water Resource Research

    bs_bs_banner Photovoice Evaluated: An Appropriate Visual Methodology for Aboriginal Water Resource Research KIRSTEN MACLEAN1* and EMMA WOODWARD2 1CSIRO Ecosystem Sciences, Dutton Park, QLD 4102, Australia. 2CSIRO Ecosystem Sciences, Berrimah, NT 0828, Australia. *Corresponding author. Email: [email protected] Received 20 April 2012; Revised 9 August 2012; Accepted 3 September 2012 Abstract Methodologies in human geography are rapidly evolving to include participatory approaches that incorporate other voices and knowledges. Central to these participatory methodologies is the co-evolution of research objectives, the co-production of knowledge, joint learning, and capacity building of all those involved. Visual methodologies that use the media of photography are gaining recognition as powerful participatory methods. In this paper, we evaluate whether photovoice is a culturally appropriate and engaging visual methodology, and consider how it can be improved to better facilitate research between non- Aboriginal researchers and Aboriginal Australians involved in water resource management. We draw from two photovoice projects conducted in partnership with two separate Aboriginal groups in northern Australia. Photovoice method- ology in this context was found to be both culturally appropriate and engaging. It facilitated genuine participatory research, empowered participants, and was easily adapted to the field situation. The methodology proved to be a powerful tool that revealed in-depth information including Aboriginal values, knowledge, concerns, and aspirations for water resource management that may not have been captured through other participatory approaches. Photovoice methodology could be enhanced with a more defined role for the researcher as knowledge broker and as translator and communicator of research outcomes (as deemed appropriate by research participants) to policy makers.

  • Victoria Daly Shire Business Plan

    Victoria Daly Shire Business Plan

    Victoria Daly Shire Council The Shire Plan Second Draft for Community Consultation May 2008 Foreword This second draft plan for the Victoria Daly Shire has been developed with the assistance and input from many people and groups. Senior management staff of the Victoria Daly Shire have been key contributors. I, Sandra Cannon, formerly the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Sarina Shire Council in Queensland, have been appointed to the position of CEO and have taken on the responsibility of coordinating and ratifying this version of the plan. Greg Arnott, formerly the CEO at Angurugu Community Government Council on Groote Eyelandt, is the Director of Corporate and Community Services for the Victoria Daly Shire. He has taken primary responsibility for the drafting of the second version of the three-year financial plan and staffing structure. The Shire Transition Committee (STC) members, officers of the eight local government bodies, and staff of Outstation Resource Centres and Aboriginal Corporations in the Shire have given generously of their time to provide ideas and “grassroots” input into the planning work. This input has included providing feedback on the first version of the plan at STC meetings in January, February, March and May, during community visits by Shire and Local Government departmental staff in the last three months, and at an intensive 4-day workshop with CEOs of existing Community Government Councils and Aboriginal Resource Centres in April. Officers from the Department of Local Government, Housing and Sport have continued to offer significant support at all levels of the development of this second draft Shire plan.

  • Adventure: Making the Most of Lis Opportunities in Central Australia

    Adventure: Making the Most of Lis Opportunities in Central Australia

    CHOOSE YOUR OWN (OUTBACK) ADVENTURE: MAKING THE MOST OF LIS OPPORTUNITIES IN CENTRAL AUSTRALIA ABSTRACT With a population of just over 25,000 people, the central Australian town of Alice Springs would not appear, at first glance, to offer many opportunities for a newly-minted librarian. Indeed, librarian vacancies in the town are relatively few and far between, primarily as a result of very low turnover in these roles. This paper explores how the author, who completed a Graduate Diploma in Library and Information Management at the end of 2012, has leveraged a combination of part-time, casual and volunteer LIS opportunities in a remote region to broaden her skills, develop a local professional network and enjoy some very unusual experiences along the way. These opportunities include a part-time role as a jack-of-all-trades Liaison Librarian at Charles Darwin University, which has led to managing a Study/Homework Centre in the University Library for senior secondary students as part of a Commonwealth-funded program to help Indigenous and low socio-economic status students make the transition to university. Similarly, a casual customer service role at the Alice Springs Public Library has provided the opportunity to help develop and maintain a library service for inmates at the Alice Springs Correctional Centre. Meanwhile, volunteering has yielded an array of exciting opportunities, including working in a library and archives collection of national significance at the Strehlow Research Centre. Connections developed there have subsequently led to an opportunity to be involved in the Alcoota Fossil Project, preparing and cataloguing 8 million-year-old megafauna fossils at the Museum of Central Australia.
