Biography
Andrew is a population researcher with a particular interest in modelling future population scenarios for the Northern Territory and for other remote areas of Australia.
He is member of the Australian Population Association and co-Chaired the Organising for the 14th Bienniel Australian Population Association conference held in Alice Springs in 2008.
In collaboration with the Northern Territory Government Andrew has developed a cohort-component projections model for the Territory which allows comparisons between the Indigenous and non-Indigenous population projections.
He is also undertaking major work on Indigenous mobility, and particularly its historical and contemporary relationships to migration and mobility models and theory. He has extensive experience in the collection, manipulation and analysis of official data sets having managed Indigenous surveys, social surveys and census units within the Australian Bureau of Statistics for ten years.
Prior to joining SSPR, Andrew was a lead researcher on a project examining the potential for 4WD tourism to enhance the livelihoods of people in remote and desert areas of Australia. Previously he developed the data architecture for an online tourism information system. He produced master’s thesis which modelled and critically evaluated the marketplace for tourism information in Australia.
