| Summary: |
This seven day Summer School is an intensive course looking at
the broad issues of heritage management, and is intended for local
government planners and heritage officers; state heritage officers;
facilities, site and park managers; rangers, curators; others involved
in heritage administration; and heritage practitioners such as archaeologists,
architects, engineers and historians.
Scope
The school focuses on European cultural heritage in Australia,
though the Burra Charter principles can be applied to most sites
of cultural value. While emphasis is placed on the built environment,
cultural landscapes and indigenous heritage are also addressed.
The school is designed to provide those working in the field with
a broad overview of Australian cultural heritage practice, including
the Burra Charter and conservation management planning. The school
stresses the multi-disciplinary nature of contemporary heritage
management, covering a diversity of topics including community consultation,
interpretation, tourism and heritage, and the maintenance of heritage
buildings.
