FORGING GLOBAL RELATIONSHIPS AMONG HERITAGE MANAGEMENT CONSULTANTS

Teresita Majewski - co-organisers: Donn R. Grenda and Michael R. Polk

The American Cultural Resources Association (ACRA) is a U.S.-based not-for-profit organization that promotes the professional, ethical, and business practices of the cultural resources (heritage management) industry, including all of its affiliated disciplines, for the benefit of the resources, the public, and the members of the association. A current strategic planning initiative of the organization aims to explore the value of internationalizing its goals, which include promoting professionalism, supporting the business and training needs of the industry, and encouraging awareness of heritage policy, legislation, and management in general. We propose that forging global relationships and communication among heritage management consultants can strengthen the ability of practitioners in their own countries to develop and sustain best practices in regard to identifying and preserving resources, engaging all relevant stakeholders in making heritage-management-related planning ! decisions, and when necessary, appropriately mitigating negative impacts to sites, buildings, and landscapes. Examples from around the world are used to bolster the argument for international communication within the industry and create a model for relationship-building.
