Native Title and Cultural Heritage legislation can best be described as complex. Increasingly, those involved with the planning, construction and management of infrastructure assets are required to understand the legal basis of native title and cultural heritage issues. Effective management of native title and cultural heritage is critical to the timely delivery of infrastructure projects.
This one-day program has been designed to provide attendees with an understanding of native title and cultural heritage compliance requirement’s related to infrastructure projects and land tenure dealings, as well as offering additional strategic learning specific to regional challenges, government policy developments and in-house compliance systems.
