walata tyamateetj: a guide to government records about Aboriginal people in Victoria
Preface
A joint guide to government records about Aboriginal people held in Victoria was first published by the National Archives of Australia and Public Record Office Victoria in 1993, during the International Year of the World’s Indigenous People. This guide, called My Heart is Breaking, was subsequently reprinted in 1994 and again in 1997 following Bringing Them Home: Report of the National Inquiry into the Separation of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Children from their Families.
The records listings originally compiled by Ian MacFarlane and Myrna Deverall have provided the groundwork for this new publication. Demand continues for a guide that assists both the Koorie community and other researchers to access records from Victorian government agencies that relate to Aboriginal people.
walata tyamateetj includes information about Victoria’s Aboriginal records through a comprehensive listing of records, and provides an opportunity to publish a guide to the records in both hard copy and electronic formats. Uniquely for Victoria, the records created by the many Victorian government agencies overseeing the administration of Aboriginal affairs have become part of the collections held by both Public Record Office Victoria and the National Archives of Australia.
The collection was separated due to an administrative change of responsibility for Aboriginal affairs from the State to the Commonwealth in 1975. This guide highlights the wealth of material about Aboriginal Victorians that can be found within government archives, and assists researchers to access these records, regardless of which archive they are currently in. walata tyamateetj is one of many joint initiatives between Public Record Office Victoria and the National Archives of Australia to raise awareness of available resources for Aboriginal Victorians and to improve access to government records about Aboriginal people, families, communities and culture.
Much has been achieved in the years since the first guide to records was published 20 years ago. In 2004 a joint Koorie Reference Officer role was created to work across both organisations. The role is now a focal point for the provision of services to the Aboriginal community and part of a small team known as the Koorie Records Unit, which was established within the corporate structure of Public Record Office Victoria with a view to continuing cooperation with the National Archives of Australia.
The creation of a shared reading room facility at the Victorian Archives Centre has also been emblematic of the broader cooperation between the two organisations. The Victorian Archives Centre in North Melbourne provides a central place to access and research the records listed in this guide. Other collaborations between the National Archives of Australia’s Melbourne office and Public Record Office Victoria to promote and improve accessibility to records relating to Aboriginal people held by government and other organisations include publications, workshops and training, and grants programs targeted at highlighting and raising awareness of the rich collection of Aboriginal resources available in Victoria. The Victorian Koorie Records Taskforce provided leadership for many of these initiatives between 2001 and 2011

Landscapes of violence: women surviving family violence in regional and rural Victoria
In this research, family violence survivors have identified issues and barriers they have encountered, and have provided suggestions in regards to how both the criminal justice system and the broader Victorian community might assist survivors and help prevent family violence.
Overview
This project combines the findings of two studies undertaken by the Centre for Rural and Regional Law and Justice. Drawing on and extending the findings in Women\u27s experience of surviving family violence and accessing the Magistrate\u27s court in Geelong, Victoria (2013), this report extends the research in terms of geographic areas, issues covered and range of participants.
It examines the experiences of, and outcomes for, women survivors of family violence in regional and rural Victoria, considering their contact with, and perceptions of, government agencies (including Victoria Police, the Victorian Magistrate\u27s courts and the Department of Human Services) as well as private and community advocates (legal services, women\u27s services and family violence services) and healthcare professionals.
Through this research, survivors have identified issues and barriers they have encountered in escaping family violence, and have provided suggestions in regards to how both the criminal justice system and the broader Victorian community might assist survivors and help prevent family violence. As well as being informed by survivors, this publication includes insights provided by government and non-government practitioners and organisations who have offered their views on this report\u27s key findings and recommendations. In addition to the generous contributions of these participants, this report utilises relevant data and emerging research in an effort to identify best practice responses to family violence; improve access to justice, support and safety; and protect and promote women\u27s rights and entitlements
'Merging' the Aboriginal population: welfare, justice, power and the separation of Aboriginal children in Victoria
This paper sets out some of the parameters of social intervention in the family in Australia around the turn of the 20th century in ways which permit interventions in Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal populations to be broadly compared and contrasted. It focuses on forms of intervention underpinned by the kind of liberal political reasoning that allowed administrators to intervene on the basis of assessments of the capacity of families to govern themselves (Hindess 2000, 2001). The paper draws on archival material in Victoria, and the evidence of interventions in Aboriginal populations focuses on the removal of Aboriginal children from their communities in various parts of the state during this period. 'Race' comes to be constructed in terms that allow legislators and administrators to make discriminations within Aboriginal populations in order to manage them
Imperialist women in Edwardian Britain : the Victoria League, 1899-1914
This thesis, based on private papers, society records, autobiographies and
memoirs, newspapers and periodicals, examines one mainly female imperialist
organisation - the Victoria League - and the women who ran it. It considers two related
questions - what made Edwardian women imperialist, and how, within the limits of
Edwardian society, could they express their imperialism? The thesis shows that several of
the League's founders and executive had visited South Africa during or shortly before
the Boer War, and that this experience, particularly for those who came into close contact
with Milner, was pivotal in stimulating them to active imperialism. The Victoria League,
founded April 1901, aimed to promote imperial unity and a British South Africa in a
variety of suitably 'womanly' ways: Boer War charities, imperial education, exporting
literature and art to the white dominions (particularly the Transvaal), welcoming colonial
visitors to Britain, arranging for the welcome of British settlers in the colonies, and
promoting social reform as an imperial issue. It worked overseas through a number of
independent Victoria Leagues in Australasia, the Imperial Order, Daughters of the Empire
in Canada, and the Guild of Loyal Women in South Africa; and at home with a number
of similar (though largely male) imperial propaganda societies. The thesis also considers
the Victoria League's attitude to race, particularly through its debate over entertaining
Indian students. It ends with a discussion of the options available to imperialist women;
and of the obstacles they faced in questions of authority (how far and in what ways a woman
could pronounce on imperial subjects) and of ideology (as expressed through the anti-suffrage
campaign). It concludes that the Victoria League, by transferring areas of
activity long acknowledged as 'feminine' to the imperial stage, redefined areas of female
competence and enlarged woman's 'separate sphere' to include the active propagation of
imperialism
