Abstract/Summary:
The Aboriginal Involvement in Recovery Planning Project has sought to address numerous issues. Most importantly, it has focused on assessing collaborative mechanisms, which will allow ongoing partnerships in this area of planning across NSW. It has also attempted to assess how the NPWS might meet the new legislative requirement to consider Indigenous interests while at the same time having limited resources and a heavy workload which requires hundreds of Recovery Plans to be produced in the next few years.
