Aboriginal Cultural Heritage
My Mission
At Pakana Heritage, my mission is to provide exceptional heritage services that honour and protect Aboriginal cultural heritage values as well as create sustainable strategies that benefit both the community and clients.
I understand that Country, Sky, and Sea have a continual connection to the pakana/palawa people of lutruwita and beyond and must be cared for to ensure a healthy community.
Our cultural heritage provides us with direct links to our Pakana Ngini, our stories, our creation and our Country.
Our Country is a living cultural landscape with deep memories of our Pakan Ngini.
We provide Aboriginal Cultural Heritage services across Tasmania, including the preparation of Aboriginal Heritage Assessment Reports (AHARs) in accordance with the requirements of the Aboriginal Heritage Act 2024 and Aboriginal Heritage Tasmania Aboriginal Heritage Standards and Procedures 2023.
