Background and Policy Context. The NPARIH (Appendix 1) is a comprehensive COAG reform strategy that aims to address overcrowding, homelessness, poor housing condition and severe housing shortage in remote Indigenous communities within 10 years to June 2018. It is a National Partnership, and a critical part of two major COAG agreements: • The National Affordable Housing Agreement (NAHA) which commenced in 2009 with the objective of ensuring all Australians have access to affordable, safe and sustainable housing that contributes to social and economic participation. • The National Indigenous Reform Agreement (NIRA), agreed by all governments in 2008, which sets out the COAG framework for Closing the Gap on Indigenous disadvantage over the long term. The NIRA includes, in Schedule E, a set of Investment Principles in Remote Communities to guide investment under COAG National Partnership Agreements (Appendix 2). COAG’s Closing the Gap plan has six specific targets to address the gap in life expectancy, mortality rates, education and employment outcomes. The approach depends on making progress against several ‘building blocks’ – early childhood, schooling, health, healthy homes, safe communities, economic participation, governance and leadership. The NPARIH focuses effort on the healthy homes building block in remote Indigenous communities. It takes account of views expressed by Indigenous people in remote communities over many years that better maintained, less crowded housing is essential for their children to sleep well, go to school and grow up healthy4. Building and maintaining safe, healthy and secure homes in remote communities contributes to all of the Closing the Gap targets. The NPARIH has reformed responsibilities between the Commonwealth, the states and the Northern Territory in the provision of housing for Indigenous people in remote communities. It established the Commonwealth as the major funder of remote Indigenous housing over the life of the 10-year strategy, with state and the Northern Territory governments responsible for service delivery against a set of agreed objectives. Those objectives are: • Significantly reducing severe overcrowding in remote Indigenous communities. • Increasing the supply of new houses and improving the condition of existing houses in remote Indigenous communities. • Ensuring rental houses are well maintained and managed in remote Indigenous communities. Achievement of the objectives is supported by a range of outputs set out in the NPARIH and add...

  • BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The partnership proposed by the Cooperator was selected due to merit review evaluations from the 2017 Notice of Funding Opportunity P17AS00037. The Cooperator demonstrated expertise in disciplines and subject areas of relevance to cooperative research and training. The Cooperator met the program interests of NPS with expertise, facilities, experience, diversity of programs, and history of collaborative research projects. The Cooperator helps the NPS-CESU to meet its objectives to:  Provide research, technical assistance and education to NPS for land management, and research;  Develop a program of research, technical assistance and education that involves the biological, physical, social, and cultural sciences needed to address resources issues and interdisciplinary problem-solving at multiple scales and in an ecosystem context at the local, regional, and national level; and  Place special emphasis on the working collaboration among NPS, universities, and their related partner institutions. The CESU network seeks to provide scientifically-based information on the nature and status of selected biological, physical, and cultural resources occurring within the parks in a form that increases its utility for making management decisions, conducting scientific research, educating the public, developing effective monitoring programs, and developing management strategies for resource protection. Studying the resources present in NPS parks benefits the Cooperator’s goal of advancing knowledge through scientific discovery, integration, application, and teaching, which lead toward a holistic understanding of our environmental and natural resources. The Cooperator is a public research university, sharing research, educational, and technological strengths with other institutions. Through inter-institutional collaboration, combined with the unique contributions of each constituent institution, the Cooperator strives to contribute substantially to the cultural, economic, environmental, scientific, social and technological advancement of the nation. The NPS expects there to be substantial involvement between itself and the Cooperator in carrying out the activities contemplated in this Agreement. The primary purpose of this study is not the acquisition of property or services for the direct benefit or use by the Federal Government, but rather to accomplish a public purpose of support or stimulation authorized the Legislative Authorities in ARTICLE II. This agreement fulfills the Public Purpose of support and economic stimulation for the following reasons:  Projects will engage recipients, partners, communities, and/or visitors in shared environmental stewardship.  Projects will promote greater public and private participation in historic preservation programs and activities. The project builds resource stewardship ethics in its participants.  The information, products and/or services identified or developed by projects will be shared through a variety of strategies to increase public awareness, knowledge and support for historic preservation and stewardship of the nation’s cultural and historical heritage.  Projects will support the Government’s objective to provide opportunities for youth to learn about the environment by spending time working on projects in National Parks. The NPS receives the indirect benefit of completing conservation projects.  Projects will motivate youth participants to become involved in the natural, cultural and /or historical resource protection of their communities and beyond.  Students gain “real world” or hands-on experience outside of the classroom of natural, cultural and/or historical resource projects.  The scientific community and/or researchers external to NPS gains by new knowledge provided through research and related results dissemination of natural, cultural and/or historical resource information.  Projects assist in the creation, promotion, facilitation, and/or improvement of the public’s understanding of natural, cultural, historic, recreational and other aspects of areas such as ecological conservation areas, and state and local parks.
