Funded Activity Summary

An Intergenerational Oral History of the Koori Courts. This intergenerational oral history project aims to capture the creation of the Koori Courts in Victoria: an innovative culturally appropriate response to the overrepresentation of Indigenous people in prisons. The project will capture this significant story while the key players are still with us. Outcomes include: building the capacity of Indigenous researchers, identifying insights into institutional change and creating a touring exhibition providing an accessible record of a turning point in Indigenous, legal and Australian history. Benefits for Indigenous communities and the wider Australian public include showcasing of an inclusive justice system, thereby supporting confidence in the rule of law.
