Nov. 2004, a National Indigenous Council has been created

July 04 updates:
Karen
and Graeme’s indigenous projects are powering ahead. In terms of
finding out information about the past year, I think the best source
is a website we have built recently called telinfo (www.telinfo.gov.au).
This website includes links to our indigenous webpages, which run
through what is happening on the indigenous telecommunications
front. Telinfo also includes information about an information
campaign we have been running on television and radio, and in
newspapers, including downloads of the ads. The ads have
concentrated on telecommunications consumer rights and a broadband
scheme (HiBIS) we have launched recently for rural and remote
consumers. As part of the campaign, we are also about to launch an
information booklet specifically targeted at indigenous consumers.
Copies of this will be available on telinfo.

Contemporary Aboriginal art is sent to Kashmir where third world artisans
create tapistries based on the art and these are co-marketed and royalties
shared. A great model of global collaboration!

Below are the links I've been asked to review prior to my two week
country-wide tour!
While not well organized, with a little exploring you'll find some real gems!
You may have to cutnpaste the longer ones back together where they wrapped in
mid-link.
Measures of a knowledge-based economy and society, Australia
The Mobile Telecommunications Education and Training Service will work directly with communities to provide information on a range of telecommunications matters, including TAPRIC programs, telephone and Internet opportunities, and consumer telecommunications rights. The service will travel to remote Indigenous communities in selected regions of the Northern Territory, South Australia, Western Australia, New South Wales and Queensland between July 2003 and March 2004. The service will also provide community training in Internet use and web publishing, with a strong emphasis on passing on skills to the communities.

Kevin says: Town7 is where the surfing beaches connect with the reef snorkling beaches.
Lots of entries for 'regional Australia' mainly from the government, but
they also use the term rural, even though the agency uses regional i the
title. Here is the moribund discussion area for this agency: You can work
backwards to get a picture of what's happening.

The following 2001 document might be worth reading. I have only browsed the
TOC here:
http://www.dotars.gov.au/regional/publications/rural_book/index.htm
It's called "the Rural Book 2001" and has a bunch of chapters on govt.
services. Chap 8 is on 'communications' and you don't need to download the
whole thing.
