Stakeholder and Community Consultation

A stakeholder is defined by the Memorial as someone who is interested in, who can influence, or may be impacted by heritage matters at the AWM. These stakeholders may be from within the Memorial, individuals or community groups, as listed below.

The AWM Heritage Strategy, Heritage Management Plan or any future works, projects or activities may be of interest to stakeholders. The Memorial’s Building and Services Section determine who the relevant stakeholders are for consultation in relation to heritage matters. This occurs on a case-by-

case basis and would be determined where the stakeholders’ interests, skills or expertise, matches

the heritage matter being considered and requiring consultation.

Consultation involves stakeholder engagement in the most suitable forum for the matter or project being considered, and is based upon an understanding of already identified understanding, familiarity and appreciation of heritage matters.

The Memorial undertakes consultation to ensure all stakeholders have a genuine opportunity to engage with the particular heritage-related matter or project. The Memorial’s consultation aims to reflect their particular expertise, or aspirations and to ensure the Stakeholders are aware, informed and engaged with the conservation of the National and Commonwealth Heritage values of the AWM.
