They explain here their memories of their early homelands, which are given a context with information about the histories of rivers and parks in Vietnam. Then these Vietnamese Australians talk about their hopes about parks in Australia and their actual experiences in the parks and rivers around their new homes near the Georges River. The book arises from the Parklands, Culture and Communities project, supported by the University of Technology Sydney and the NSW Office of Environment and Heritage, to investigate the ways cultural diversity shapes people's understandings and uses of green spaces, especially in cities. The book is one of a series (available through the Georges River Project website), which focus on the knowledge about nature which immigrants bring from their homelands as well as on the experiences they have in Australian parks and on Australian rivers. Waterborne: Vietnamese Australians and Sydney's Georges River parks and green spaces concludes with the recommendations of the Vietnamese Australians who took part in the book about how parks can be made more inclusive, relevant and welcoming for all communities.

They began to work openly with state institutions on projects such as the promotion of Afro-Cuban heritage to encourage tourism, and community welfare initiatives to confront drug use, prostitution, and housing decay. In this rich ethnography, the anthropologist Adrian H. Hearn provides a detailed, on-the-ground analysis of how the Cuban state and local religious groups collaborate on community development projects and work with the many foreign development agencies operating in Cuba. Hearn argues that the growing number of collaborations between state and non-state actors has begun to consolidate the foundations of a civil society in Cuba.
