This monograph presents the peer-reviewed proceedings of the CAEPR
conference on Indigenous Socioeconomic Outcomes: Assessing Recent
Evidence, held at The Australian National University in August
2005. It presents the latest evidence on Indigenous economic and
social status, and family and community life, and discusses its
implications for government policy. The main focus of this volume
is on analysing the 2002 National Aboriginal and Torres Strait
Islander Social Survey (NATSISS) outputs and issues about how to
interpret the data. It also offers some assessment of changes in
Indigenous social conditions over time and examines how Indigenous
people fared vis-à-vis other Australians in other statistical
collections. The discussion of the broad Indigenous policy context
by three prominent Indigenous Australians—Larissa Berhendt, Tom
Calma, and Geoff Scott—explores different perspectives.
