Notes:	Section 1 of this report examines the literature of Indigenous violence from both quantitative and qualitative perspectives. The quantitative findings support the premise that Indigenous violence is widespread and disproportionately high compared to non-Indigenous violence in Australian society. Section 2 provides background information on the nature and distribution of a variety of forms of violence, which are according to the literature and other empirical evidence, prevalent in some or many Indigenous communities. Contains statistics on spouse assault; homicide; rape and sexual assault; violence towards children; suicide; and self injury. Section 3 provides descriptive material on violence programmes that have been or are being implemented, or were planned for implementation in Indigenous communities during the 1990s. Section 4 contains a series of community-based strategies for resolving, combatting or preventing Indigenous family violence and treating the harm and stress arising from such violence.
