A crucial issue before tribal societies (at the national political level) and lobbyists on their behalf (at the level of international pressure and advocacy) is to find strategies that will enlist the energies of others to act on their behalf. Many sympathetic human rights groups at the international level have begun to lobby for better aboriginal entitlement, and in other political struggles arising out of resource exploitation projects, national linguistic policies, mass tourism proposals or improved social services, there is also much of interest and relevance to the movement for improved aboriginal entitlement. Of all these concerns, none approaches as close a coincidence of interests as the conservation movement.
