Abstract
The paper reflects on the theoretical and empirical considerations underpinning a study that will provide an in-depth place-based study of an Aboriginal communitys success in developing a range of services, infrastructure and programs to overcome Aboriginal disadvantage and promote well-being. The theoretical and empirical aims of the study are to advance knowledge about the relationship between Aboriginal societies, self-governance and well-being, talking back to policy on Aboriginal service delivery and programs across a range of Council of Australian Governments (COAG) priority building blocks identified for Closing the Gap between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal Australians.
