This work builds on previous social and economic planning research, in particular that of Dr John Taylor at ANU whose expertise and advice has been appreciated by the Centre for Remote Health team. Ruth Davies provided thorough editing and constructive advice on all sections, and wrote the health status section of that chapter. Stewart Blyth provided research support and a wealth of practical understanding of services at a community level, as well as proofi ng all tables and fi gures, of which there are many. Lastly, there are many reports and papers that formed the basis of this report, and this work is only done as a consequence of the work of those people. The facts and their interpretation as presented remain the responsibility of the authors.

  • A Twentieth-Century Aboriginal Family
    Chapter 10 The Northern Territory, 1972 The 1972 Federal election was a time of heightened tension among interest groups in Australia. The Liberal-Country Party coalition had been in power since 1949 and all politically minded people sensed a change. All except those in power. Aboriginal poverty, high infant mortality rates and the question of Land Rights left Aboriginal leaders wondering how they could contribute in the political milieu they were confronted with. Charlie Perkins had been telling me for three or four years that he wanted to ‘get rid of this government’, in particular to show his contempt for the Country Party. Charlie at the time was an Assistant Secretary in the Department of Aboriginal Affairs and in spite of his role as a bureaucrat he was intimately involved in Aboriginal politics. So was I. On many occasions he would express his confidence that change in Aboriginal people’s living conditions were just around the corner while at other times he would be filled with despair. The time frame between accepting the nomination to run for the Northern Territory seat and leaving Sydney was very tight. As a family we had to sell the Summer Hill house to finance getting to, and living in Alice Springs. I had to resign from the Legal Service, make contact with the Australia Party base in Darwin and prepare my thinking for an election campaign. One of the first things I did was to speak to my colleague Len Smith to seek his views about if, and how, I should run my campaign.

  • Centring Anangu Voices
    Report NR005 2017 Centring Anangu Voices A research project exploring how Nyangatjatjara College might better strengthen Anangu aspirations through education Sam Osborne John Guenther Lorraine King Karina Lester Sandra Ken Rose Lester Cen Centring Anangu Voices A research project exploring how Nyangatjatjara College might better strengthen Anangu aspirations through education. December 2017 Research conducted by Ninti One Ltd in conjunction with Nyangatjatjara College Dr Sam Osborne, Dr John Guenther, Lorraine King, Karina Lester, Sandra Ken, Rose Lester 1 Executive Summary Since 2011, Nyangatjatjara College has conducted a series of student and community interviews aimed at providing feedback to the school regarding student experiences and their future aspirations. These narratives have developed significantly over the last seven years and this study, a broader research piece, highlights a shift from expressions of social and economic uncertainty to narratives that are more explicit in articulating clear directions for the future. These include: • A strong expectation that education should engage young people in training and work experiences as a pathway to employment in the community • Strong and consistent articulation of the importance of intergenerational engagement to 1. Ground young people in their stories, identity, language and culture 2. Encourage young people to remain focussed on positive and productive pathways through mentoring 3. Prepare young people for work in fields such as ranger work and cultural tourism • Utilise a three community approach to semi-residential boarding using the Yulara facilities to provide access to expert instruction through intensive delivery models • Metropolitan boarding programs have realised patchy outcomes for students and families. The benefits of these experiences need to be built on through realistic planning for students who inevitably return (between 3 weeks and 18 months from commencement).

    P: 08 8951 4236 F: 08 8952 8521 PO Box 8070, Alice Springs, NT 0871 www.caylus.org.au The Executive Director Australian Law Reform Commission GPO Box 3708 SYDNEY NSW 2001 31 August 2017 Re: Submission to The Inquiry into Incarceration rates of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples To the Executive Director, We are writing to bring some recently completed research to the attention of your inquiry. The attached report: Investing in the future; the impact of youth programs in remote central Australia: a Social Return on Investment (SROI) analysis was facilitated by CAYLUS and conducted by the Nous Group as a part of their community benefit work. This research comprehensively examines three youth programs in three remote communities in the NT. These programs range from a relatively new program that runs on very minimal funding through to program that has operated for 25 years, that has grown in complexity and which has attracted a greater level of funding. As shown in the research these types of programs primary value is that they keep young people busy and prevent risky behaviours by young people before they happen. As such we draw this research to your attention in relation to the Inquiries terms of reference 2 e iii the availability and effectiveness of culturally appropriate programs that intend to reduce Aboriginal; and Torres Strait Islander offending and incarceration. The research also shows that these programs play a role in Decreasing Detention through Use of Community Supervision and Decreasing Contact with Police both of which arguably relate to a range of other terms of reference.
