Ngukurr to Newcastle: intercultural collaboration and influence

这个跨学科项目将探索偏远土著社区居民对他们自己的社区和更广泛的澳大利亚社会的跨文化贡献。这样做的目的是挑战偏远土著社区以赤字为中心的主要观点，而是将这些社区视为活跃的不同文化交流的场所。它将支持社区成员收集和记录关于土著人民的故事，这些故事都是有影响力的，并从土著角度参与研究土著历史。与社区的合作将确保以可访问的形式保存这些故事，以便子孙后代和未来的领导人能够访问它们。

This interdisciplinary project will explore the intercultural contributions of residents from a remote Aboriginal community both on their own community and the broader Australian society. In doing so it aims to challenge dominant deficit-centred view points of remote Aboriginal communities and instead examine these communities as sites for lively intercultural exchanges. It will support community members to collect and document stories about the people who were an are influential and in doing to engage in Indigenous histories from an Indigenous perspective. Collaborative engagement with the community will ensure that these stories are preserved in accessible forms so that they are accessible for future generations and future leaders.
