Description

Social and Architectural Histories of Aboriginal Housing in regional NSW . This project aims to generate new knowledge on the social significance and architectural history of Aboriginal housing on former reserves in regional New South Wales from the 1950s to 2000. Place-based collections of archival photographs from disparate sources will be shared in community-hosted forums to elicit narratives and commentaries on housing, re-coding the images with knowledge at risk of loss. The project will implement and evaluate Indigenous data governance principles ensuring Aboriginal-led stewardship of data shared between communities and partner organisations. The novel research methods will build community resources for truth-telling and activate the use of critical housing histories in future policy and co-design processes.. Scheme: Linkage Projects. Field: 3301 - Architecture. Lead: Dr Campbell Drake
