dc.description.notesThis summarises the evaluation report on the National Indigenous Family Violence Grants Programme (NIFVGP), which assessed its operation and mentoring scheme, along with recommendations or key principles. Six million dollars had been allocated to NIFVGP, as part of the second phase of Partnerships Against Domestic Violence (PADV 2). There were 4 funding rounds under NIFVGP between 1999 and 2004 (a total of 74 projects run by Indigenous organisations to respond and prevent family violence). The first key principle which provided a basis for the evaluation was cultural grounding:, that included: cultural appropriateness; support for local community-based organisations and embracing all segments of Indigenous community; increasing community capacity, skills and leadership to respond to violence; embracing Indigenous culture and identity; and enhancing family relationships. The second principle was taking a holistic approach:to embrace the social, emotional, spiritual and cultural wellbeing of all segments and a range of processes, both preventative and interventionist. The third principle was on fostering collaborations:between community-based Indigenous organisations and other agencies. The achievements have been summarised: about 60% of projects achieved all of their stated aims, and a total of 54 out of 74 projects completed their reports. The National Forum and the Walking into Doors:Campaign, cultural grounding of projects, networking and partnerships, information collection and dissemination (including website), training and skills acquisition within Indigenous service provider (ISP) projects were identified as some of the strengths. Weaknesses included: execution deficiencies (design and performance of ISPs); 20 of 74 projects completed their projects but failed to meet the reporting requirements; 7 projects were terminated or withdrew; and 25% of projects totally failed or failed to deliver a significant number of their outcomes, as well as poor or negligible reporting. Problems were noted in relation to: difficulty in achieving equitable distribution of funds using a national grant system; failure to establish an Indigenous Advisory Group that met regularly and cultural grounding; poor report writing and self-evaluation by ISPs; project targeting and limits to achieving holistic outcomes; project execution problems; mentoring deficiencies; lack of recurrent funding; vulnerability of smaller organisations; and lack of evidence on reduction of Indigenous Family Violence. A list of projects funded under NIFVGP is included.en
