Our approach to cultural master planning incorporates three disciplines that emphasize our local knowledge and international experience:

• Heritage Master Planning which strengthens the community’s built heritage and cultural heritage resources;
• Cultural Tourism Research & Development which positions the community’s cultural assets and opportunities within an economic framework; and
• Cultural management and capacity building which help the community make effective use of its cultural resources and organizational abilities.

We have professional work experience and expertise in:

• cultural planning and charting culture;
• integrating cultural planning with cultural tourism, heritage resource planning and community planning;
• cultural resource management;
• strategies for creative partnerships development;
• pioneering work in sustainable cultural development;
• public consultation skills; and
• communications with internal stakeholders and for promotion.
