Strategic Review of Cape York Income Management

In 2018, the Australian Government commissioned independent researchers from the Queensland University of Technology to undertake a Strategic Review of Cape York Income Management (the Review). The aim of the Review was to assess the impact of Cape York Income Management (CYIM) in the Cape York Welfare Reform communities of Aurukun, Coen, Hope Vale and Mossman Gorge from inception to the point of review (2008-2018). The Review was designed to analyse over ten years of qualitative and quantitative data on Income Management (IM) in the Cape York communities, and inform how IM could be utilised in the future, following any changes to Cape York Welfare Reform.
