Nothing works? Re-appraising research on Indigenous-focused crime and justice programs

对以土著居民为重点的犯罪和司法项目的研究通常发现，对减少再犯罪等结果的影响很小或没有影响。这个项目的目的是确定这些发现是否准确地反映了项目的无效，或者是研究如何进行的结果。通过对犯罪和司法项目的三个案例研究的分析，本项目旨在说明为什么会出现再犯罪结果没有差异的结果，并提供一种更以土著为中心的方法来评估项目的有效性。将与新西兰和加拿大使用的土著方法进行比较。

Research on Indigenous-focused crime and justice programs often finds little or no impact on outcomes such as reductions in re-offending. This project aims to determine whether such findings are an accurate reflection of program ineffectiveness or are a consequence of how the research was carried out. With an analysis of three case studies of crime and justice programs, this project aims to show why findings that show no difference in re-offending outcomes may occur, and offer a more Indigenous-centric methodology to assess program effectiveness. Comparisons will be made with indigenous methodologies used in New Zealand and Canada.
