Cultural Resource Protection Summit (9th annual)
May 25-26, 2016 |
The 2016 Cultural Resource Protection Summit marks the ninth 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.
With a theme of "Communication Across Careers and Cultures," the Summit agenda will encourage attendees to examine the challenges of communication across careers (professions) and cultures (value systems), as well as real-world examples of how effective communication supports responsible land use planning. On Day 1, we will focus on issues of particular interest to land use planners and developers, while on Day 2, we will address more advanced Cultural Resource Management (CRM) topics. Both days will include a keynote speaker and a series of related panel sessions culminating in small and large-group Q&A/discussion. So, bring an open, inquisitive mind and your burning questions about how to communicate cultural resource concerns to others!
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.
