Indigenous Cultural Heritage Management

Indigenous Cultural Heritage Management involves protecting, preserving, and respecting the cultural sites, traditions, and knowledge of Indigenous peoples. It ensures that sacred sites, artifacts, and practices are recognized and safeguarded from damage or disrespect, especially during development or land use activities. This process often includes consultation with Indigenous communities to incorporate their values and perspectives, promoting cultural continuity and acknowledging their connection to the land. The goal is to balance development with the respect and preservation of Indigenous cultural identity and heritage for future generations.
