Dr Lisa Strelein is the Director of the Native Title
Research Unit and the Director of Research programs at AIATSIS.
Lisa’s research and publications have
focused on the relationship between Indigenous peoples and the
state, and the role of the courts in defining Indigenous peoples’
rights. Lisa has made a significant contribution to academic
debate on native title in
Australia, including her recent book Compromised Jurisprudence:
Native Title Cases since Mabo, which was heralded by members
of the judiciary and Indigenous community alike. She also writes
for a wide variety of audiences and has worked with teams in
creating a catalogue for a native title art exhibition and an
award winning multi-media package on native title. Lisa maintains
strong networks within the native title system, conducting
research projects in partnership with or in response to the needs
of native title representative bodies and claimants as well as
government departments. Lisa is the convenor of the annual
National Native Title Conference, which remains the leading annual
Indigenous policy conference in Australia. Lisa has degrees in
Commerce and Law and was awarded a PhD, for her thesis examining
Indigenous sovereignty and the common law, from the
ANU
Research School of Social Sciences in 1998.
Current Research Focus

Lisa also maintains her interest in the jurisprudence of native
title and current native title policy and practice.
