* *Living through a National Emergency: A view of the Intervention from 
Ground Zero
Bill Fogarty (Doctoral Scholar, CAEPR) and Marisa Fogarty (Doctoral 
Scholar, School for Social and Policy Research, Charles Darwin University)

**This seminar will provide a perspective on the Intervention from one 
of the largest Indigenous townships in the NT through the eyes of two 
doctoral research scholars who were researching in the community as the 
Intervention broke. The paper analyses the initial reactions of both the 
people of the region and their local organisations, as well as detailing 
their interactions with the Northern Territory Emergency Response 
Taskforce and other government agencies during the first month of the 
Intervention. In so doing, we posit the local experience of the 
Intervention as a transformative and traumatic moment in the township’s 
relationship with state and explore a deeper question around the nature 
of the intervention and its bearing upon the concept of state and local 
engagement in the post-Intervention *
