Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders are among the most disadvantaged groups in Australian society. The health and wellbeing of the first Australians has long been a cause of grave concern and national shame for such an affluent, developed copuntry as Australia. Many remote communities in particular are blighted by a social epidemic of domestic violence and child sexual abuse. Recent government intervention in communities riddled with substance abuse, violence, sexual abuse, law and order problems and overcrowding only highlights some of the many shocking effects of this disadvantage. Has too little been done too late? This book examines the extent of breakdown in the key areas of health, housing, employment, justice and remote communities, and explores what is being done by governments and the Indigenous community to address these unacceptable levels of disadvantage.Chapter 1: Extent of Indigenous DisadvantageChapter 2: Intervention in Remote CommunitiesGlossary; Facts and Figures; Additional Resources; Index

"The Closing the Gap Clearinghouse was established by the Council of Australian Governments (COAG) to bring together evidence-based research on overcoming disadvantage for Indigenous Australians. The Clearinghouse provides access to a collection of information on what works to improve Indigenous people's lives across the building blocks of early childhood and schooling, economic participation, health and safe communities. The Clearinghouse not only collects, but also systematically analyses and synthesises this evidence. This paper provides policy makers with key findings about what works and assesses the gaps in the evidence. It also sets out progress of the Clearinghouse towards its objectives in its first year of operation" -- P. 1.

This book brings together two of today's leading concerns in development policy - the urgent need to prioritize poverty reduction and the particular circumstances of indigenous peoples in both developing and industrialized countries. The contributors analyse patterns of indigenous disadvantage worldwide, the centrality of the right to self-determination, and indigenous people's own diverse perspectives on development. Several fundamental and difficult questions are explored, including the right balance to be struck between autonomy and participation, and the tension between a new wave of assimilationism in the guise of 'pro-poor' and 'inclusionary' development policies and the fact that such policies may in fact provide new spaces for indigenous peoples to advance their demands. In this regard, one overall conclusion that emerges is that both differences and commonalities must be recognised in any realistic study of indigenous poverty.

Across almost all standard indicators, the Indigenous population of Australia has worse outcomes than the non-Indigenous population. Despite the abundance of statistics and a plethora of government reports on Indigenous outcomes, there is very little information on how Indigenous disadvantage accumulates or is mitigated through time at the individual level. The research that is available highlights two key findings. Firstly, that Indigenous disadvantage starts from a very early age and widens over time. Secondly, that the timing of key life events including education attendance, marriage, childbirth and retirement occur on average at different ages for the Indigenous compared to the non-Indigenous population. To target policy interventions that will contribute to meeting the Council of Australian Governments¿ (COAG) Closing the Gap targets, it is important to understand and acknowledge the differences between the Indigenous and non-Indigenous lifecourse in Australia, as well as the factors that lead to variation within the Indigenous population.
