Outlines land use history in Broome, including government policy from 1930-1960; sets out aims of the Rubibi Land, Heritage and Development Working group set up by Yawuru, Djugan and Goollarabooloo Aboriginal groups in 1994 to handle native title claims; outlines Rubibi's land use planning project; this case study indicates the types of problems being encountered in the mediation process at the local level and argues for reform of the mediation process and greater resources for native title applicants
