Charles Darwin University Annual Report 2006 49 Within the Futures Framework, Indigenous participation and relevance has three major elements: developing an understanding of Indigenous perspectives to enable the University to best serve the needs of Indigenous citizens and communities improving access and providing additional support to Indigenous students, staff and other stakeholders incorporating Indigenous perspectives and needs into mainstream University core-business areas. Trends that the University will be seeking as indicators of success from 2007 onwards include: improving numbers of Indigenous enrolments across a diverse range of courses and at higher levels improving outcomes in and for communities in which the University works, including promoting Indigenous leadership and greater emphasis on the integration of Indigenous and Western knowledge recognition as being an employer with an increasing number of Indigenous employees across a diverse range of positions and at higher levels. Resources will be directed towards these ends in 2007. Raising the levels of literacy, numeracy and training opportunities for Indigenous students is one of the greatest civil-rights challenges facing Australia today, according to many of the key speakers at the recent 2006 Garma Forum. Coordinated by Charles Darwin Universitys School for Social and Policy Research, the three-day forum was a major feature of the Garma Festival held at Gulkula, 40 km from the mining township of Nhulunbuy, in north-east Arnhem Land from 48 August 2006. The forum, chaired by ABC Radio Nationals Late Night Live program presenter Phillip Adams, focused on past and present education policy and practice and examined ways to build and adapt non-Indigenous and Indigenous capacities to learn together. Special attention was paid to work-readiness and on-the-job training programs. The forum included workshops, presentations, panel discussions and learning exchanges. Discussions were led by a diverse range of speakers, including leaders from traditional Indigenous communities, government offi cials, policy makers, politicians, academic researchers, teachers, health workers and corporate representatives. A common theme was the urgent need for action to deal with the issues of disadvantage and lack of access and resources for education and training in Indigenous communities. 2006 Garma Festival Forum Indigenous education and training
