Funded Activity Summary

Internecine conflict and violence in NSW Aboriginal communities: an historicised assessment of governance and social control. Analysis of the context of conflict and violence in NSW Aboriginal communities through ethnohistoriographical techniques and Indigenous knowledge methodologies, including Aboriginal focus groups, will engage and empower Aboriginal people in innovative approaches to restoring social order. Research outcomes, specific to localities in NSW, have benefits for dealing with conflict and violence in Indigenous communities in Australia and internationally. Research outcomes will clarify the sources of conflict, ensure conflict resolution and ongoing civil societies, enhance the cultural viability of communities, and inform public developments with appropriate governance models, enhancing Indigenous wellbeing.
