Reconciling child welfare with culture and identity

Jeremy Sammut - The Age

This article from The Age examines a crucial issue in the Australian child welfare system - “how to reconcile the protection of the wellbeing and development of children with the promotion of Indigenous culture and identity to avoid a repeat of the Stolen Generations.” The article refers to a recent episode of the SBS TV program, Insight, which featured the stories of indigenous children and families in the foster care system.
