FACT SHEET No. #4 DEEP TIME AND DRAGON DREAMING: THE SUSTAINABLE ABORIGINAL SPIRITUALITY OF THE SONG LINES, FROM CELEBRATION TO DREAMING John Croft update 28th March 2014 This Factsheet by John Croft is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License. Permissions beyond the scope of this license may be available at [email protected]. ABSTRACT: It is suggested that in a culture that is suicidal, to get a better understanding of what authentic sustainability is about requires us to see through the spectrum of a different culture. Australian Aboriginal cultures, sustainable for arguably 70,000 years, provide one such useful lens.

ISC Full Document FINAL DRAFT 070204 1700
Dr Ian Mansergh, Dr Alan Newsome and Dr David Shorthouse Summary This report was commissioned by New South Wales (NSW) National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) as part of the brief to the Independent Scientific Committee (ISC) to examine the scientific significance and condition of attributes of the Kosciuszko National Park. The park’s diverse habitats support populations of about 300 native terrestrial (non-aquatic) vertebrate species - mostly Australian endemics - and an unknown number of invertebrate species. The Kosciuszko faunal assemblage is of national significance, and it makes a major contribution to an internationally significant environmental region that includes the adjacent Alpine National Park in Victoria and Namadgi National Park in the Australian Capital Territory (ACT). Contribution to international significance · The total vertebrate biodiversity of Kosciuszko National Park compares very well with other (large) temperate montane/alpine national parks in North and South America, and is significant for the presence of representatives of all subclasses and infraclasses of mammals (Monotremata, Marsupialia and Eutheria). The high diversity of reptile species, especially above the snowline, is also notable. · Thirteen vertebrate taxa with populations in the park are listed as threatened or near threatened by the World Conservation Union (IUCN). · The international significance of the mountain pygmy-possum Burramys parvus and a variety of other features lends strength to the acceptance of the area under World Heritage criterion (i). If invertebrates - poorly known at present - are considered, criterion (iii), perhaps criterion (i), and the biodiversity representation aspects of (iv) would be met or exceeded. · Some long-term studies in the park are internationally important in helping to resolve global scientific-conservation questions, and the park is well placed to assist the international investigations into greenhouse climate change and its effects on biodiversity. -

Studies have Available online 1 February 2010 reported that place attachment is associated both with more and less pro-environmental behavior.

Pap. Proc. R. Soc. Tasm. 133(1): 103-113. ISSN 0080-4703. School of Geography and Environmental Studies, University ofTasmania, GPO Box 252-78, Hobart, Tasmania, Australia 7001. The Huntingfield area has a varied vegetation, including substantial areas ofEucalyptus amygdalina heathy woodland, heath, buttongrass moorland and E. amygdalina shrubbyforest, with smaller areas ofwetland, grassland and E. ovata shrubbyforest. Six floristic communities are described for the area. Two hundred and one native vascular plant taxa, 26 moss species and ten liverworts are known from the area, which is particularly rich in orchids, two ofwhich are rare in Tasmania. Four other plant species are known to be rare and/or unreserved inTasmania. Sixty-four exotic plantspecies have been observed in the area, most ofwhich do not threaten the native biodiversity. However, a group offire-adapted shrubs are potentially serious invaders. Management problems in the area include the maintenance ofopen areas, weed invasion, pathogen invasion, introduced animals, fire, mechanised recreation, drainage from houses and roads, rubbish dumping and the gathering offirewood, sand and plants. Key Words: flora, forest, heath, Huntingfield, management, Tasmania, vegetation, wetland, woodland. INTRODUCTION species with the most cover in the shrub stratum (dominant species) was noted.

As the data are directly sourced from the 2015 Report, the Compendium also notes where the original table, figure or text in the 2015 Report can be found. For example, where the Compendium refers to ‘2015 Report, p. 2.1’ this is page 1 of chapter 2 of the 2015 Report, and ‘2015 Report, table 2A.1’ is attachment table 1 of attachment 2A of the 2015 Report. A list of attachment tables referred to in the Compendium is provided at the end of this chapter, and the full attachment tables are available from the Review website at www.pc.gov.au/research/recurring/report-on-government-services. The Statistical context chapter (chapter 2) in the Report on Government Services 2015 (2015 Report) contains contextual information to assist the interpretation of the performance indicators presented in this Report. Data are presented for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people for some items — those data are compiled and presented here. The Statistical context chapter also contains a discussion of the statistical concept of age standardisation and its application to prisoner population rates, and to death rates, for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander and non-Indigenous people. -

The Promise of Regional Governance for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Communities1
Ngiya: Talk the Law – Volume 1 THE PROMISE OF REGIONAL GOVERNANCE FOR ABORIGINAL AND TORRES STRAIT ISLANDER COMMUNITIES1 ALEX REILLY∗, LARISSA BEHRENDT∗∗, RUTH McCAUSLAND∗∗∗ and MARK McMILLAN∗∗∗∗ The national interest requires a new relationship with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. There can be no relationship without partnership. There can be no partnership without participation.2 From the time the Whitlam Government introduced ‘self-determination’ as its policy framework for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, there have been many legislative versions of what this means in practice. This debate about how Indigenous people’s interests and needs can be best represented in legislation has re-emerged after the Federal Government’s announcement of the abolition of ATSIC and its Regional Councils.3 Both Indigenous peoples and governments continue to struggle with the question of representation in the context of policy formulation, funding arrangements, accountability, regulation, service delivery and Indigenous peoples’ human rights. Regional governance for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people is often proposed as a means of addressing disadvantage and disempowerment, and as better reflecting the priorities and aspirations of Indigenous communities than national or state-based structures. In the wake of the abolition of ATSIC, both the Federal Government and Opposition indicated their support for working with 1 This paper is part of an Australian Research Council funded project on Regional Governance and Indigenous communities that Jumbunna Indigenous House of Learning, University of Technology Sydney and the Gilbert + Tobin Centre of Public Law, University of New South Wales, has undertaken in partnership with Reconciliation Australia. ∗ Alex Reilly is Senior Lecturer, Macquarie University. -
