Episode 7 More than Land - Country, Culture and Connection

Episode 7: More Than Land – Country, Culture and Connection

Aboriginal connections to Country are deeply spiritual, viewing land as a living, sacred entity that forms the basis of identity, belonging, and culture. So how do we, as proponents and consultants, truly honour that in the projects we work on?
Our host, Andrew Mack, sat down with Yvonne Power to discuss how we can foster authentic relationships with Traditional Owners, what a best-practice approach to heritage management really looks like, and why the world’s oldest continuous living culture must be valued as a genuine partner from the outset.
