CULTURAL HERITAGE WORKING GROUP

Project Background


Sapphire Coast Tourism wishes to produce a Heritage Tourism Strategy that will:

• Deliver heritage tourism in the Sapphire Coast;

• Leverage the Australia’s Coastal Wilderness (ACW) National Landscape’s recognition as a world class

attraction; and

• Further develop the region’s rich historic and cultural heritage and coastal wilderness and scenery.

Targetting the international 'Experience Seeker' who are planning to travel to Australia's Coastal Wilderness,

Sapphire Coast Tourism (SCT) have identified the opportunity to provide this market with a range of heritage

experiences. With the knowledge that Experience Seekers value learning and engaging experiences of local

cultures, the Sapphire Coast is seen as an ideal destination. SCT believes that, within the ACW National Landscapes core experiences there are a further suite of outstanding attractions in the region that will be of particular interest this market, including natural, historic and cultural heritage experiences.

The Working Group welcomes contributions from anyone interested in the development of this strategy

Indigenous Protocol

The Sapphire Coast Cultural Heritage Working Group adopted the following protocol at its meeting on 16th April 2010
At all times, the Sapphire Coast Cultural Heritage Strategy seeks to be culturally inclusive, particularly in respect of the indigenous community. It is anticipated that some projects might be in partnerships and others culturally distinct. The participation of the Indigenous Community will be actively sought and , where the community wishes to develop its own projects, the Sapphire Coast Cultural Heritage Strategy will support those projects within the constraints of its capacity.
