Victoria’s Cultural Heritage Management Plan (CHMP)
EIANZ Victorian Division
|
Melbourne, VIC
2013-06-06
|
The EIANZ Victorian Division, in conjunction with Biosis invites you to a seminar on Victoria’s Cultural Heritage Management Plan (CHMP) process as experienced from different perspectives.
Victoria’s Aboriginal Heritage Act 2006 (AHA) has been in operation since 2007. The legislation and regulation introduced a systematic methodology for up-front assessment, management and protection, standing in contrast to the previous, back-ended heritage management system. The AHA requirements have often surprised proponents because of its associated costs and time frames. This seminar will consider industry case studies and explore the difficulties, advantages and mechanisms of process and compliance from various perspectives. Given the state government has recently reviewed the legislation there will also be a discussion of the proposed changes and the implications of these.
Speakers include:
• Dr Mark Eccleston – Acting Manager Heritage Operations, Aboriginal Affairs Victoria (AAV)
• Darren Griffin – Manager Cultural Heritage, Wurundjeri Tribe Land & Compensation Cultural Heritage Council
• Maurice Stabb – Director of Infrastructure, Wyndham City Council
• Dr Ilya Berelov – Team Leader Cultural Heritage, Biosis
A panel session will follow to allow for questions and discussion.
Who should attend?
• Industry (developers including residential and industrial, energy, mining/quarries, etc.)
• Government (local and state - policy and infrastructure delivery)
• Environmental and planning professionals (e.g. planners, environmental scientists, archaeologists, etc.)
Where: One Spring Street (Mezzanine Level) Melbourne
When: Thursday 6 June 2013
Cost: EIANZ Members $50
Non-members $60
Students $40

People & the Planet 2013.
Transforming the Future Conference.
RMIT University Melbourne
|
Melbourne, VIC
2013-07-02
|
We are living through a period in human history when life on this planet is in danger of becoming unsustainable for many of its species—including us. More than a century ago, when Charles Dickens wrote the Tale of Two Cities, his words told of a deep ambivalence: ‘it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us’. The passage spoke of a new world in which the people of Paris and London had choices to make about their future. Now, variations on those words have become the backdrop to a growing sense that it is has become all too complicated.
This conference responds to that challenge in a number of ways. Firstly, instead of treating sustainability as a narrow ecological question framed by business as usual, it addresses the human condition across the integrated domains of economics, ecology, politics and culture. Secondly, the conference brings together the very different constituencies of academia, civil society, urban governance and business. It asks: What does it mean to be responsible for the future of our planet? How can we best work collaboratively across those different constituencies to address basic issues of sustainability? Thirdly, the conference asks: ‘What is to be done?’ This is not to reduce the future to technical solutions, but rather to debate how are we going to act now to work towards an imagined future.
