Cultural Resource Protection Summit
May 20-21, 2015 |
With a theme of “Collaborative Land Use Planning,” the 2015 Cultural Resource Protection Summit marks the eighth anniversary of our gathering. Since its inception, the primary goal in organizing the annual Summit has been to facilitate amongst all affected parties an open, frank discussion about the intersection between cultural resources and land use. The Summit is designed to promote collaborative cultural resource planning as an effective means of finding resolution to issues before they escalate into emotionally-charged, divisive, and expensive stalemates or law suits.
This year, the Summit agenda will encourage attendees to examine the challenges of and opportunities for collaboration across professions (careers) and value systems (cultures), as well as real-world examples of how collaboration has supported effective, responsible land use planning. On Day 1, we will focus on land use planning issues, while on Day 2, we will address more advanced Cultural Resource Management (CRM) topics. Both days will include a keynote speaker and two series of shorter panel sessions (“posing problems” in the morning, “seeking solutions” in the afternoon) culminating in a group Q&A/discussion. So, bring an open, inquisitive mind and your burning questions!
Join us at the Suquamish Tribe’s beautiful and inviting House of Awakened Culture for a two-day gathering that will help you improve your technical skills while deepening your connection to why we do this work. Leave with more tools for protecting cultural resources and sharing the important stories they tell.
