Funded Activity Summary
Aboriginal Women Law and Colonialism: Safe Places for Women. There has been extensive media reporting on violent crimes against Aboriginal women and children in Aboriginal communities across Australia, which has created wide public debate. In particular the role of the courts when sentencing Aboriginal offenders of violent crimes has drawn attention to the interpretation of Aboriginal law and culture. The evaluation of Australian case law will be invaluable in expanding the Australian communities knowledge in this area of law and policy, in planning safer Aboriginal communities for Aboriginal women and children in the future.Funded Activity Details
