HTMLIndigenous home ownership on communal title lands (positioning paper)

03 February 2009A 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. Communal title lands are popularly perceived to occur in remote Indigenous settlements, where lands are jointly held in some form of a trust to the broader ‘community’. While less common, there are also communal title lands within the boundaries of a number of regional towns and metropolitan cities throughout Australia, which in some cases consist of conglomerates of freehold title blocks that are held collectively through a community housing organisation.
