Learning To Live With Native Title
More Information

Since the initial confrontation, a more constructive approach to native title has been adopted by some in the mining industry and other industries.

Companies, like Normandy Mining, CRA and others have come to accept native title as part of doing business in Australia and acknowledge the legitimate right of Indigenous peoples to have a say over development on their lands And they've negotiated in good faith.

Individuals, such as Robert Champion DeCrispegny from Normandy or Camilla Cowley, who is a pastoralist have set an example and have become actively involved in projects for reconciliation between indigenous and other Australians.
