Re-integrating Central Australian community cultural collections

This project has digitised 17,564 files of legacy images, audio and video (5.92TB) in the Central Land Council (CLC) region of the Northern Territory pertaining to Indigenous people, their cultural practices and historical events dating back to the 1970s. New information about the legacy materials has been obtained through extensive fieldwork with Indigenous people. The materials and information have been curated in a secure digital collection by PARADISEC digital archive at the University of Sydney and returned to the CLC to manage. The researchers produced an edited volume on current practices of returning legacy materials to their community of origin, reasons to do this and issues involved; as well as over 20 presentations.
