Prerequisite conditions for Indigenous nation self-government

该项目旨在产生关于土著民族建设进程的新知识。根据自治提高土著社会经济和社区能力的研究，该项目将与两个土著社区合作，调查影响从“确定”到“组织"政治集体过渡的因素，以实现自治。这些知识有可能直接促进土著社区的福祉，因为他们定义它，它的目的是促进澳大利亚和国际土著治理，政治学和土著方法文献。该项目将使土著人民、更广泛的澳大利亚社区、澳大利亚政府以及澳大利亚和国际INB研究人员受益匪浅。

This project aims to produce new knowledge about Indigenous nation building (INB) processes. Based on research that self-governance increases Indigenous socioeconomic and community capacity, this project will collaborate with two Aboriginal communities to investigate factors that impact the transition from 'identifying' to 'organising' as political collectives to enable self-governance. Such knowledge has the potential to directly contribute to increased wellbeing for Indigenous communities as they define it. It aims to contribute to Australian and international Indigenous governance, political science and Indigenous methodologies literatures. The project could significantly benefit Indigenous peoples, the broader Australian community, Australian governments, and Australian and international INB researchers.
