Collective Capability Within Indigenist Evaluation
Evaluation is essential for assessing whether policy and program outcomes align with their intended goals. A key critique of Western evaluation approaches is their failure to incorporate Indigenous ways of knowing, being and doing. Developing an Indigenist evaluation concept can enhance evaluation quality by recognising Indigenous perspectives. This study draws on Indigenous Lifeworlds as a theoretical basis to explore the idea of ‘collective cap…
School environment as a risk and protective factor for self-harm and suicidality
This article contributes to a First Nations-led research agenda exploring risk and protective factors influencing suicidality and self-harm among secondary-aged Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander youth. Using Wave 14 (2021) data from Footprints in Time: The Longitudinal Study of Indigenous Children , this article focuses on relationships between factors of the school environment and self-harm, suicidal thoughts, and suicide attempts among 906 …
Ethical issues in conducting health research with people in prison
Onset and trajectory of alcohol and other drug use among Aboriginal men entering a prison treatment program
‘Telling our story… Creating our own history’
Our findings support the assertion that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people want to be involved in research when it is done 'the right way'. Footprints in Time has successfully recruited and retained the current-largest cohort of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children in Australia through the use of participatory research methodologies, suggesting effective study implementation and processes. Participants indicated ongoing commit…
Navigating the Political Landscape of Australian Criminal Justice Reform
Political ideology and populism are often thought to be major impediments to criminal justice reform. Our research has attempted to deconstruct these ideas so that the robustness of the ‘punitive turn’ in criminal justice policy can be better understood. This article reports upon in-depth interviews conducted with five very senior criminal justice policy-makers, each of whom was broadly sympathetic to reforming criminal justice policy to achieve …
Unlocking dimensions of social capital in the prison setting
BACKGROUND: Social capital has been shown to be a valuable resource for improving health outcomes. However, it has received little attention in the prison setting. Dimensions of social capital in mainstream society are likely to function differently among inmates in prison. This study seeks to identify and understand social capital dimensions among incarcerated men living with hepatitis C. METHODS: In-depth interviews were conducted across three …
Contextualising the social capital of Australian Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal men in prison
Alcohol and other drug use among Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander and non-Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander men entering prison in New South Wales
Prison entrants commonly have a history of problematic alcohol and other drug (AoD) use. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander (Indigenous) Australians are vastly overrepresented in Australian prisons with an incarceration rate 16 times that of non-Indigenous Australians. Relatively little attention has been given to the patterns of AoD use among prison entrants and we hypothesise that they may differ between Indigenous and non-Indigenous entrant…
Working in partnership
As part of a broader study on Indigenous illegal drug use, the authors undertook skills training to increase cross‐cultural mutual understanding of the often different approaches and methodologies between research and practice, as well as Aboriginal and non‐Aboriginal understandings of these approaches. The study and the skills transfer training were part of a longerterm partnership between Winnunga Nimmityjah Aboriginal Health Service and the Na…
