Socio-economic data for the Basin Plan Evaluation 2020

# Community Wellbeing Indices. \r\nThis data set is published in the technical report prepared for the Independent Assessment of the Social and Economic Conditions in the Basin [Independent Assessment of the Social and Economic Conditions in the Basin](https://www.mdba.gov.au/publications-and-data/publications/independent-assessment-social-and-economic-conditions-basin-0). \r\n\r\n## Dataset 1 (Local Government Area data for different dimensions of Community wellbeing): \r\nThis dataset provides data for individual Local Government Areas (LGAs) of the Murray-Darling Basin for different dimensions of community wellbeing. The categorisation indicates whether a community was considered to have poorer than average, average, or better than average outcomes from Regional Australia scores for each dimension. This dataset also includes the remoteness classification of the Local Government areas and the population figures for the years 2006, 2011 and 2016.\r\n\r\n## Dataset 2 (Ratings of access to different services and infrastructure, by Local Government Area): \r\nThis dataset identifies average scores for access to services and infrastructure by local government area. There are some limitations to this data: in particular, in less populated areas, there was insufficient sample in some LGAs to analyse data for that LGA on its own. In these cases, the data reported are for 2-4 LGAs of similar remoteness, located adjacent to each other, with the average score for respondents in those two to four LGAs.\r\n\r\n## Dataset 3 (Population , Economic Diversity, Dependence on agriculture, and drought incidence): \r\nThis dataset covers population figures for 2006 and 2016, changes in economic diversity , changes in dependence on agriculture, irrigation dependence and Drought severity on the LGAs\r\n\r\n## Source:\r\nSchirmer J and Mylek M (2020) Thriving, surviving, or declining communities: socio-economic change in Murray–Darling Basin communities, report to the the Panel for the Independent Assessment of Social and Economic Conditions in the Murray–Darling Basin. Raw data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) for the years 2006, 2011, and 2016, Hutchinson Drought Severity Index from 2001 to 2018, Australian Institute of Health and Welfare (AIHW) for the year 2017 and Regional Wellbeing Survey (RWS) 2018 are used to develop the datasets in this Sheet.\r\n\r\n## Note:\r\nThe Regional Wellbeing Survey is open to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander participants, and each year around 100 to 150 Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander people participate in the survey. However, this is a small sample, and the survey does not currently include some topics known to be important to the wellbeing of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people – for example, topics examining connection to country, or experiences of racism. This means the Regional Wellbeing Survey can provide some insight but not a comprehensive understanding of factors important to the wellbeing of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders" (Schirmer, J, Mylek, M, Peel, D, Yabsley, B (2015) People and Communities, The 2014 Regional Wellbeing Survey, Report 1 People and Communities, University of Canberra). \r\n\r\n# Estimated Residential Population of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in the MDB\r\n\r\n## License: \r\nThis publication is provided under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license.

# 社区福祉指数（Community Wellbeing Indices）
本数据集发布于为《墨累-达令流域社会经济状况独立评估》（Independent Assessment of the Social and Economic Conditions in the Basin）准备的技术报告中，报告链接：https://www.mdba.gov.au/publications-and-data/publications/independent-assessment-social-and-economic-conditions-basin-0

## 数据集1（社区福祉多维度地方政府区域数据）：
本数据集涵盖墨累-达令流域各地方政府区域（Local Government Areas, LGAs）的社区福祉多维度数据。其分类标准基于澳大利亚区域得分，将各维度的社区福祉结果划分为低于平均水平、平均水平以及高于平均水平三类。本数据集同时包含地方政府区域的偏远程度分类，以及2006年、2011年与2016年的人口统计数据。

## 数据集2（各地方政府区域的服务与基础设施可及性评级）：
本数据集给出了各地方政府区域的服务与基础设施可及性平均得分。该数据存在一定局限性：具体而言，在人口稀少地区，部分地方政府区域的样本量不足，无法单独开展数据分析。此类情况下，报告数据为相邻且偏远程度相近的2-4个地方政府区域的合并数据，即这2至4个区域受访者的平均得分。

## 数据集3（人口、经济多样性、农业依赖度与干旱发生情况）：
本数据集涵盖2006年与2016年的人口统计数据、经济多样性变化、农业依赖度变化、灌溉依赖度，以及各地方政府区域的干旱严重程度相关信息。

Schirmer J与Mylek M（2020年）《繁荣、存续与衰退：墨累-达令流域社区的社会经济变迁》，提交给墨累-达令流域社会经济状况独立评估专家组的报告。本数据集所使用的原始数据来自澳大利亚统计局（Australian Bureau of Statistics, ABS）2006年、2011年及2016年的统计数据、2001年至2018年的哈钦森干旱严重指数（Hutchinson Drought Severity Index）、澳大利亚健康与福利研究所（Australian Institute of Health and Welfare, AIHW）2017年数据，以及2018年区域福祉调查（Regional Wellbeing Survey, RWS）。

## 备注：
区域福祉调查（Regional Wellbeing Survey, RWS）面向原住民与托雷斯海峡岛民参与者，每年约有100至150名原住民或托雷斯海峡岛民参与该调查。但该样本规模较小，且目前未涵盖部分对原住民与托雷斯海峡岛民福祉至关重要的议题——例如涉及与土地联结或种族主义经历的相关话题。这意味着区域福祉调查仅能提供部分视角，无法全面阐释影响原住民与托雷斯海峡岛民福祉的各类因素（Schirmer, J, Mylek, M, Peel, D, Yabsley, B (2015) 《人口与社区：2014年区域福祉调查报告第1号》，堪培拉大学）。
