Following a "crisis" visit to Alice Springs, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese called for a partnership between the Northern Territory government and the federal government to address the problem. The government has also announced. So far, these apply universally and not only to Aboriginal people. However, the government is also considering bans on Aboriginal communities.
There have been calls for greater support for First Nations families and organisations to empower them to keep their communities and families safe.has identified the need for better justice partnerships between government and Aboriginal communities. Yet, the media coverage has been on the need for top-down punitive and paternalistic responses.

Aboriginal justice sentencing for aboriginals rather that traditional justice aka jail maybe the answer. I understand 'spearing' to be a penalty dished out for serious offences. That should put a stop to crime.
It is madness to do the same failed things again( doing it with Medicare too). Just goes to show neither Lnp or Alp have any new ideas. Bottom line is there is neither penalties nor is there rehabilitation. Another major problem is there isnt any employment. No hope of better
I predicted a few days ago we'd start seeing this sort of article on the ABC. Downplaying the drunken anarchy and the crime that was being reported and dismissing the experiences of the victims of these crimes, indigenous and non indigenous victims. Reverting to type. Poor.

Free The Weed! Less violence and petrol sniffing. Allow them togrow it themselves. Employ 1st nations people to enforce grog and drunk free zones around communities and homes. Let the people who binge drink their grog in a designated place away from children and busy roads.
It’s a frightening situation for everyone who lives there. Hard to implement extra support services on these isolated communities bc no one wants to live/work there except the local people themselves. The conditions for outside workers are poor, very lonely and often dangerous.
Interesting article, is there a article somewhere that offers strategies or plans or solutions in any way shape or form. Way too many experts offering commentary but no solutions. What are the credentials of the authors of this article, have they been to the Alice very recently .
More “experts” chiming in from over 1,500km away. Can we please hear from people who actually live there?
Correction, the ALP is.
‘We’ are not.
Disingenuous, this is. What should be done, do you reckon? Send in few slabs of VB and some nangs for the kids to have some fun?
If the ABC spent more time reporting news than trying to make it, we would all be better off !
same mistake or same situation or same people?
it is disappointing that theconversation would publish an article by learned individuals that has zero focus and no mention of the victims of the crime wave in NT and WA. Are the victims to be considered collateral damage? What about an article on the justice system? auspol
Australian government increasing the gap
I am not effected myself but would it not be a good idea to think of ways to lift the moral in the community with maybe some free stuff free events free hand outs sure why not make the people feel wanted, Taking away the booze is more like a punishment in their eyes
Yes, if only there were some way where we could get input from the people affected. You could call it, I dunno, something like the Voice, that sounds catchy. Maybe the ABC could start promoting it in a positive manner.
Oh ... ita's analysis column
There might need to be another Rescued Generation.
Put the little $hits in jail problem solved.
It’s a tragedy 236 years in the making!
It actually was helping ABC... The resumption of alcohol got the old ball rolling again FFS.
tell your community to stop raping kids when they are drunk
Honouring the diverse perspectives of First Nations people obviously doesn’t work. If they can’t look after themselves who is going to look after them and save them from themselves? The ABC?
I agree, let’s start with equality. Firstly we have to treat indigenous people the same as the other 97% of the country. Remove all indigenous services and increase services available to all. No more special treatment in respect to healthcare, education or justice.
Thats a lot of people. Thousands flock to streets to protest Invasion Day in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Canberra If all they want is to change the day, I cant see the problem.I drink beer Monday. I drink beer Tuesday.Whats the difference?
Listen to the Community. Checkout Sustainable Australia Party
are 'we'? us? 'we'? are the parent/s who let their kids run wild in the streets making mistakes? are the wannabe gangsta violent teens making mistakes? why shame 'us', abc? these violent hoons are the ones who deserve shaming get effed, abc
Any suggestions?
