Explore your Indigenous community with this revealing analysis of how their socioeconomic characteristics differ from other people in your local area.

An Indigenous Portrait examines how markedly the living arrangements, dwellings, incomes, education and employment of your local Indigenous people differ from others in your community.

It turns Census information on Indigenous people, into a written analytic report, ready to distribute or use as a resource.

An Indigenous Portrait is written in clear, jargon-free text illustrated with charts that are easy to understand. It will inform both Indigenous and non-Indigenous people in any community of the differences between their lifestyles and opportunities.

The Contents of the 2006 Indigenous Portrait will be more extensive than the 2001 Indigenous Portrait, shown above, because the ABS 2006 Indigenous Population Profile will have more tables than before, and comparisons with 2001 will be included.

Specifications

The Indigenous Portrait draws most of its data from the ABS Census product called the Indigenous Population Profile (IPP), which is available from the ABS web site for any area from Statistical Local Area (SLA) and larger (here). There is an IPP for all Council areas (many larger councils include several SLAs) and for Indigenous regions (formerly ATSIC).

Our Indigenous Portrait is provided as an Excel workbook with five sheets. The Report sheet contains the full Indigenous Portrait, ready to print. Three other sheets contain the IPP for your area and preferred comparison area, and the Basic Community Profile for your area. The fifth sheet has user notes to guide you with printing and formating.

You can edit any of the text in the report before publishing, and change any chart of colour using common Excel skills. You can print the report as a PDF or html for electronic distribution.
