Bennelong Society

The Bennelong Society was a conservative think-tank dedicated to Indigenous Australian affairs. The society was named after the Eora man Bennelong, who served as an interlocutor between the Indigenous Australian and British cultures, both in Sydney and in the United Kingdom almost from the start of British settlement of Australia in 1788. It was affiliated with conservative commentators in debates on Indigenous affairs. The society was established to:promote debate and analysis of Aboriginal policy in Australia, both contemporary and historical; inquire into the causes of the present appalling plight of many contemporary Aboriginal people; seek to influence public opinion so that the prospects for amelioration of the condition of these people are improved; encourage research into the history of the interaction between Australia's Indigenous people and the Europeans and others who settled in Australia from 1788 onwards, and of the ideas through which this interaction was interpreted by both Europeans and Aborigines; make available to the Australian community, particularly through the Internet, the results of these activities.
