Kava and after in the Nhulunbuy
Kava and after in the Nhulunbuy (Gulf of Carpentaria) Hinterland
Helen Hughes / Centre for Independent Studies
Many Aboriginal communities have welcomed the Australian Government’s ban on the import of kava, as part of the Northern Territory "emergency intervention". Helen Hughes asks what comes next? Clearly banning kava won't solve the deeper social, education and health problems endemic in remote indigenous communities. Will these problems merely be wallpapered over with alcoholism or to the rise of cannabis and other drugs? Posted 18-10-2007
