Issue
The issue of the following topic revolves round the factor of securing environmental
sustainability through corporate social responsibilities of organizations regarding the indigenous
people and tribes of Australia. The Indigenous Australian people have been deprived of most
facilities and they have always been regarded as disadvantaged people in the society of Australia.
The Dreaming and Economic Organization will be focused in these perspectives regarding the
success of their plans and policies precisely.
Background
This portion of the report will relate to the overall condition regarding this topic. It has
been known by most people that the Australian indigenous people have been neglected in many
cases. In the socio-economic perspectives, these indigenous people have always been regarded as
disadvantaged. Australian indigenous people have not gained any type of socio-economic
advantage in the last few decades (Whitehouse et al., 2014). Although in the recent times the
Federal Government of Australia has taken some steps that would be helpful for them to
overcome these problematic situations. The foundational aspects of the Indigenous cultures in
Australia are based on the diversity of the Australian families. The Federal Government is also
not that much cautious about delivering them with the amenities they will need. This is the
probable reason as to why they feel as the disadvantaged section of the society. The family life
has been changed in the entire Australia and these changes have been influenced by the
Europeans. There are many sectors where these indigenous people have not been able to gain any
sort of facilities. These are mostly education and health sectors. This is why it is quite probable
that children of these indigenous people do not have the education to thrive in this competitive
society. As a result of this lack of education, they have not got proper jobs that would help to

increase the GDP of Australia. The various forms of disadvantage among the indigenous
Australians can be seen in their poverty, unemployment and racism.
It is a very clear thing to say that indigenous Australians have been victims of racism
over the years. The negative impact of this racism has been seen in their quest for seeking health
and education facilities as well. They have remained unemployed because they have received
insults from their colleagues in their workplaces. So, it is high time that they should get all their
rights. They suffer from stress and mental dysfunction from the last decade of the 18th century to
be precise.. Many policies have been taken by the Federal Government of Australia as it is a
matter of national heritage. Still, the problem remains as people of indigenous families are
largely deprived of their rights to education, health, employment and others. The economic
organizations should come up in the aid of these people to save them from extinction. If the
statistics regarding their depriving from facilities can be compared, it can be seen that more than
22% of indigenous Australians are unemployed today in comparison to 7% of those non-
indigenous people. Public debates in the current times have often questioned in favor of giving
them proper facilities that they actually deserve (Whitehouse et al., 2014). There are some
reasons in real life as to why the Australian aboriginal people have been suffering largely indeed.
The Assimilation programs have also not yielded positive fruits in this scenario. Some of these
reasons are shorter life expectancy of the people, poor health, lack of food supply, not being
provided with education facilities, low levels of employment facilities and many more things. If
all these issues are sorted out by the government, the business professionals will be encouraged
to expand their business among these people as well.
Around 40.7% of indigenous people in Australia have got their jobs in various sectors
compared to 56.4% of non-indigenous people. This is surely some kind of injustice being done
