Is it possible to combine efforts to Care for Country with tourism and achieve Indigenous Australia aims? In relation to a specific case study, this essay evaluates Djabugay culture by discussing pro-poor tourism and how it can help the case study, the potential positive and negative impacts, and the impacts the culture faced in the Tjapukai Aboriginal Cultural Park. In a study conducted by Bottoms (1999), the Djabugay peoples have lived in the rainforest for at least 5,1000 years, and recent evidence has shown the Djabugay peoples have possibly belonged, and still do, there for the last 40,000 years. In 1938, "Djabugay" and "Tjapukai" were namd and "spelt ... by anthropologist, Norman Tindale in 1938" (Tindale, 1974). It was noted by Tindale …show more content…
An $8.8 million grant was provided to "promote education and understanding ... in a society that had largely ignord the history of its original inhabitants" (The Cairns Post, 1996). Pro-poor tourism is an approach to sustainable tourism that was applied to the Park to increase economic income and value to the Djabugay culture. It should be noted that "pro-poor" does not necessarily refer Djabugay peoples as 'poor ', but rather a strategy to increase net benefits to the area. Pro-poor tourism was first established as an approach to ecotourism in 1999 by the United Nations Commission in a meeting on Sustainable Development. Pro-poor tourism is a subject of debate because it has been argued that it is controlled by private sectors and foreign companies, enhancing leakage in the Multiplier Effect. Although, it can help Djabugay peoples by providing income to set up improved infrastructure and, skills and …show more content…
To summarise, pro-poor tourism aims "to enhance ... positive impacts ... and reduce the costs it can place" (Roe & Urquhart, 2001). Pro-poor tourism has positive impacts as it "[strengthens] local economy" and Djabugay peoples work actively with "interest and devotion", which can instill pride and motivation (Roy et al.
Gullah Geechee is the culture of African descendants who incorporate the traditions, customs, and history from Africa while integrating Christianity and preserving the ancestral heritage. Gullah Geechee culture is still present in various forms of media including literature and historical content of southern regions. The culture is well preserve and very influential even in present-day literature. It is evident that the Gullah Geechee culture influence the literary works of Ntozake Shange in particular the novel Sassafras, Cypress,& Indigo. But to what extent does Gullah culture influence the development of the title characters ?

Dr Byrnes disciplinary background is in archaeology and the cultural politics of heritage in Australia. He has written three books and over forty journal articles surrounding the issue present both in Australia and Asia. Within this, the main focus of research is on the ‘the emotional and effective dimensions of our response to old things and places’ (Western Sydney University 2017). Byrnes work focuses on the migration within Australia and the material traces which connect history and heritage and the practices which transcend this nation-state frame (Western Sydney University 2017). This is apparent when analysing this paper as it focuses on the repatriation and reburial of Indigenous Australians and the apparent segregation between the archaeologists need for historical construction and, as the paper is titled, the ethos of return for the Indigenous Australians ancestral
Week ones study was focused on the Aboriginal Acknowledgement of Country and the Indigenous terms of reference. These are two very important topics as they focus on the interaction between Indigenous and Non-Indigenous Australians, fostering a relationship a relationship of trust, respect and understanding. A proper understanding of the Aboriginal Terms of Reference is an integral tool for an aspiring teacher such as myself. They encompass the cultural knowledge, understanding and experiences that are at the center of the Indigenous culture (Oxenham, 1999).
In February 1965 a group of University of Sydney students organised a bus tour of western and coastal New South Wales towns. The students planned to draw public attention to the poor state of Aboriginal health, education
South Sea Islanders did not have a major contribution to the convivial perspective in Australia due to the conditions faced by the South Sea Islanders. Their position on the gregarious hierarchy was very low as they were treated like slaves. The were optically canvassed as outsiders and called vilifying names to remind them of where they stand. They faced many discrimination as the Queensland system of labour discriminated against their race, this lead to farther discrimination. ASSI weren’t sanctioned in mainstream hospitals, withal experienced kindred disadvantages as Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders.

I explore whether my actions as a tourist contributed to responsible and sustainable settler tourism. I place emphasis on cultural tourism by recognizing its role in settler tourism. Specifically, I aim at highlighting the importance of engaging in cultural education, understanding cultural significance and supporting Indigenous businesses whilst being mindful of their impact. At The Forks, I learnt about European and Indigenous heritage by reading the information boards.
The purpose of this paper was the fact that Jamaica Kincaid felt as though tourism in the land are only seeing the greater good of the land that they were visiting. Tourists are not seeing the side where the native families are struggling to get by. Are they trying to persuade the reader to adopt a new belief or habit, or to stop doing something? Jamaica Kincaid is trying to persuade the readers of her essay to understand why tourism is such a bad thing.
Abstract Being an aborigine in a white dominated society is a complicated identity. Australia, one of the white governed nations, also owns many aboriginal tribes. They lived harmonious lives in the early period. But European colonization has made a profound effect on the lives of Aboriginals in Australia, which led to the total demolition of their native culture, identity and history. As a result the new generation Aboriginals have lost their Aboriginal heritage and have been accepted neither by Aboriginals nor by whites.
Therefore while discussing the question about the economical compensation I think that there are better options for helping the people who are domiciled in the drabbade areas at the moment. For instance nations that exploited their land and people’s labour could help the developing countries with food, water, housing, education and other goods and services that are essential for a human being’s survival. There is another argument that speaks in support of this and that is the general and economic situation in certain countries. If a corrupt state receives a large amount of money there is bigger probability that the money will end up being on someone’s personal bank account rather than used to improve people’s living
According to J. Bowen and M. Bowen (2002), in the mid 1920s, the Great Barrier Reef has gained a popular image as a fascinating and exotic area. A number of people began organizing small trips to easily accessible locations of the reef. (p.283) The marine tourism industry, The Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority and other government agencies all have a role in organizing activities and protecting the area. GBRMPA adopted a policy that involves permission for 15-year tourism activities such as boating, diving, motorized water sports, visiting island and cays.

Tourism is the income of people from one place to another place for vacation, but it can also be for business or entertainment. Tourism can either be international or domestic. Tourism has an influence on any country, either it’s for a positive impact or a negative impact. An example one might consider includes that the tourism in that individual country could possibly increase the income and positively improve the economic aspect of the country, but tourism can also negatively impact the environment. Tourism can also affect the population living in the country due to the amount of tourism which furthers the idea of more jobs need to be created for the new tourists.
