1.TOWARDS A BLACK ECONOMY: “Creating an economic template for our healthy futures.” Dr Charles Perkins
Dr Charles Perkins opening the Australia’s First National /International Indigenous and Economic Conference (NIBEC 1993) Alice Springs. 1993 International Year of the World’s Indigenous Peoples
The three factors of Aboriginal employment, education and health are inexorably linked.
They are the keys to Aboriginal well-being. The three, with Aboriginal culture as their foundation and inspiration, must be the focus of policy, programs and thus expenditure in a triangle of interdependency. To emphasis one without the other is a waste of money and effort and guarantees little positive results.
Let me know suggest some strategies for consideration which may assist to create a template for our future.
The key elements are all interconnected in a total mosaic of Aboriginal affairs underpinned on the one hand with our culture and on the other with Aboriginal economics.
The first is the Aboriginal economy and what we can do to remove to concept and perception of “welfare” from Aboriginal affaires.
Obviously in the general welfare services area this is not entirely possible nor should it be.
In almost all areas of Aboriginal activity we are funded by the Government or Quasi- Government bodies.
We have scarecely moved away from the annual dependent and humiliating welfare budgetary process.
Our economy is in reality a false economy
This arrangement can be terminated or drastically reduced at any time by any Government.
We must therefore consider several options.
Importantly, Aboriginal people should be aware of this false economy which forms the basis of Aboriginal affairs in this country.
The economic lifeline is maintained only at the discretion of politicians and fickle public.
We must therefore develop and consolidate a viable economy for our various communities and organisations that will sustain us into the future.
We must create short and long-term economic strategies now and thus create a more independent and secure base for ourselves and our children. The reality is that Aboriginal people under utilise to put is kindly, their current economic and personal resources.
The potential for economic viability for our people is available now if only we could awake to the opportunity and not be blinded largely by employment survival economics.
