Description

Made available via the Publications (Legal Deposit) Act 2004 (NT)., In Central Australia the Central Land Council has piloted a new approach to generating benefits from land use agreements by establishing a Community Development Unit and encouraging traditional owners to incorporate funding for community development activities into their land use agreements. This paper discusses the variety of community development projects this unit is undertaking with traditional owners, and the challenges it is facing as it tries to utilise community development principles in its projects.,

Notes

This paper was presented at a CAEPR Seminar on 20 October 2010. An earlier version also formed an attachment to the 2010 submission by the Central Land Council (CLC) to the Commonwealth Government on the Commonwealth Government’s discussion papers: ‘Leading practice agreements: maximising outcomes from native title benefits’ and ‘Indigenous Economic Development, Native Title and Tax’.,
