Philanthropy and Indigenous people: Enhancing Indigenous education outcomes

澳大利亚土著居民在教育成果上存在差距，这破坏了澳大利亚的社会结构。虽然有充分的证据表明，教育是赋权的，改善教育成果的社会和经济效益是显著的，但过去和现在为提高教育程度和改善国家最弱势公民的成果所做的努力并没有取得最预期的成果。少数慈善机构以创造性和革新的方式支持土著教育，这是一条有希望的新途径。本研究将检视该地区的慈善事业，并为国家提供有价值的重要实践见解。

Indigenous Australians suffer a disparity in educational outcomes that frays the social fabric of the nation. While there is abundant evidence that education is empowering and the social and economic benefits of improving educational outcomes are significant, past and current efforts to increase educational attainment and enhance outcomes among the nation's most disadvantaged citizens have not achieved the gains most expected. A promising new pathway exists in creative and innovative approaches to the support of Indigenous education by a small number of philanthropic bodies. This research will examine philanthropy in this area and will provide important practical insights of value to the nation.
