Recent research reveals that Indigenous household overcrowding has a dual nature

This Positioning Paper reports on the first stage of research into the adoption, in Australia, of new models of assertive outreach as responses to homelessness

This study explores the relationships between remote Indigenous housing procurement and the broader objectives of Indigenous communities including the economic, social, health and cultural outcomes of current and future housing policies and housing delivery programs

This study investigates the applicability of home ownership to Indigenous people living on communal title lands

If governments are interested in pursuing more demand driven approaches to housing in indigenous communities, policy-makers need better information about indigenous people's perceptions of home ownership

This 2008 paper is concerned with the effective design and operation of Prescribed Bodies Corporates, as well as other types of corporate bodies utilized by Indigenous groups in Queensland to hold the different forms of Aboriginal land title obtainable under State and Commonwealth legislation

A central theme in this research is the meaning of home ownership to Indigenous people living on communal title lands as opposed to those living on non-communal title lands

This report presents the outcomes of a research project conducted by the Australian Housing and Urban Research Institute (AHURI) Queensland Research Centre (UQ) on the characteristics and themes of the Australian Indigenous housing literature

The core aim of this paper by Paul Memmott and others is to consider the current state of good practice with regard to projects or programs aimed at reducing Indigenous family violence

This paper finds that the people of Dajarra, Alpurrurulam and Mt Isa are relatively stable in their customary attachment to their home community, country and their cultural region
