Custom-based land and resource management and the educational and social re-engagement of Indigenous youth in the Northern Territory

许多偏远社区的土著青年脱离社会和教育已经达到危机程度;年轻人离开学校和培训方案，因为他们认为这些方案无关紧要或毫无意义。这种现象的社会成本很高。该项目旨在确定如何将联合收割机土著习惯和西方科学为基础的土地和资源管理知识和做法与当地和文化上有意义的教育和培训方案结合起来，使年轻人重新参与学习和更广泛的社区。该项目将产生一系列的学术成果，除了战略政策和计划发展的协调模式。

Social and educational disengagement has reached crisis levels among Indigenous youth in many remote communities; young people are leaving school and training programs because they perceive them to be irrelevant or meaningless. The social cost of this phenomenon is high. This project aims to identify ways to combine Indigenous customary and western science-based land and resource management knowledge and practice with locally and culturally meaningful education and training programs to re-engage young people with learning and their wider communities. The project will produce a series of scholarly outcomes in addition to a coordinated model for strategic policy and program development.
