Indigenous Governance of Development: Self-Determination and Success

An Occasional Newsletter from the IGD Project

This newsletter gives a taste of the remarkable home-based solutions Australia’s First Nation peoples and their organisations are using to rebuild their collective governance and futures. The stories in our first newsletter capture a rich sample of resilience and resurgence, describing examples where Indigenous self-determined governance is being strengthened, and where development with culture and identity is being achieved. We also understand that a challenge on the road ahead is not merely to take control over our own affairs, but to govern development well and fairly on behalf of all our own Nation members.
