The experiment was led by the Australian Bureau of Meteorology and included the CSIRO, the United States Department of Energy Atmospheric Radiation Measurement Program, NASA, Manchester University, several UK, European, American and Japanese universities and national laboratories, as well as researchers from a number of Australian universities. Charles Darwin University Annual Report 2006 21 University activities to encourage Indigenous participation in tertiary education also extend to staff, including the development of a new Indigenous Employment Strategy and the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding with the Commonwealth Minister for Employment and Workplace Relations to provide more job opportunities for Indigenous Australians. Charles Darwin University has been fortunate to have had opportunities to put itself on the radar screen elsewhere in Australia as a place to turn to for input into solutions relevant to operations in, services to and sustainable development of rural and remote communities. We look forward to expanding this role under the Futures Framework in 2007 and beyond. Short term goal: To be causing overseas players, particularly those from centres of excellence in tropical or desert issues, to take notice of the interplay between Indigenous and Western cultures. Northern Australia has increasingly become a place of interest to overseas organisations, with the University providing a range of development and other activities in support. In particular, as the operations of multinational resources companies have grown in the Northern Territory, so too have the activities of the University in supporting sustainable development. In 2006, Alcan committed to funding, under its Tropical Futures: Mineral Program, the objective of minimising further environmental impacts of mining and mineral processing activities in northern Australia, including the Northern Territory. As part of the program, Alcan will fund a Senior Research Fellow for three years and support other projects in line with the programs objective. In addition, CDU will build on existing research work and specialist research and monitoring support for Alcans Gove refi nery, including the Melville Bay Marine Health Monitoring Program (MHMP), which will continue as part of the program. The Universitys work in the social and policy research arena has also caused overseas players to take notice. For example, in 2006 Associate Professor Tess Lea received a Churchill Fellowship to visit international experts on education policy and practice working in Canada and America. Her subsequent report submitted to the Winston Churchill Memorial Trust contained a review of educational policies and practices in the NT, and laid the foundation for a wider debate on the past, present and future of Indigenous education and employment. As Australias closest university to Asia, Charles Darwin University is uniquely placed to act as a gateway for engagement with groups in Asia and the Pacifi c. Recognised for expertise in tropical and desert knowledge and with a particular focus on Indigenous knowledge, University staff have substantial experience of working in partnership with a range of governments, national and international organisations and forums and non government organisations.
