Developing a Sustainable Enterprise with Indigenous Communities: A Triple Bottom Line Analysis

该项目探讨了北方领土一个偏远土著社区的可持续发展机会。 研究采用三重底线方法，确定了在发展涉及土著社区的可持续企业时需要解决的一系列社会、环境和经济问题。 该项目意义重大，因为它将为当地社区提供就业机会，并建设经济独立的能力。 三重底线方法也是创新的，因为它明确评估了社区的社会成果。 其他成果包括硕士论文，社会影响评估工具，并在评审期刊上发表三篇文章。

This project explores opportunities for sustainable development in a remote Aboriginal community in the Northern territories. Using a triple bottom line approach, the research identifies the range of social, environmental and economic issues that need to be addressed in developing a sustainable enterprise involving Aboriginal communities. The project is significant because it will provide employment for local communities in their land and build capacity for economic independence. The triple bottom line approach is also innovative since it explicitly assesses social outcomes for the community. Other outcomes include a Masters thesis, social impact assessment instrument, and three articles in refereed journals.
