- <meta content="The Australian “Committing to Place” Research Project investigates the potential of outreach
- activities and educational programmes to increase community commitment to natural
- resource management. New communication technologies offer tools for enhancing participation—
- in terms of a deeper commitment from communities and participation of a wider range of groups—through their interactive qualities and capacity to link people in different
- places. The research project evaluates the piloting, by the NationalMuseum of Australia, of
- several innovative outreach activities which use information and communication technologies
- specifically for community capacity building and developing platforms for change.
- With an understanding of evaluation as research to inform decision-making at all phases of
- project design, the Research Team is evaluating: (1) the effectiveness of each outreach activity
- in meeting stakeholder objectives, including community participants; (2) the potential
- each activity has to increase participation in the activity and other activities associated with
- cultural heritage or natural resources; and (3) progress towards “the higher purpose”, that
- is, the potential for such activities to affect natural resource management outcomes in the
- long run. The research project is an Australian Research Council Linkage Grant involving
- the University of Tasmania, the National Museum of Australia, and the Murray–Darling

- activities and educational programmes to increase community commitment to natural
- resource management. New communication technologies offer tools for enhancing participation—
- in terms of a deeper commitment from communities and participation of a wider range of groups—through their interactive qualities and capacity to link people in different
- places. The research project evaluates the piloting, by the NationalMuseum of Australia, of
- several innovative outreach activities which use information and communication technologies
- specifically for community capacity building and developing platforms for change.
- With an understanding of evaluation as research to inform decision-making at all phases of
- project design, the Research Team is evaluating: (1) the effectiveness of each outreach activity
- in meeting stakeholder objectives, including community participants; (2) the potential
- each activity has to increase participation in the activity and other activities associated with
- cultural heritage or natural resources; and (3) progress towards “the higher purpose”, that
- is, the potential for such activities to affect natural resource management outcomes in the
- long run. The research project is an Australian Research Council Linkage Grant involving
- the University of Tasmania, the National Museum of Australia, and the Murray–Darling
- Basin Commission.</p></div><table style="margin-bottom: 1em" cellpadding="3" class="not_ep_block" border="0"><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Item Type:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">Article</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Subjects:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/view/subjects/300902.html">300000 Agricultural, Veterinary and Environmental Sciences > 300900 Land, Parks and Agriculture Management > 300902 Land and Parks Management</a><br /><a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/view/subjects/300900.html">300000 Agricultural, Veterinary and Environmental Sciences > 300900 Land, Parks and Agriculture Management</a></td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">ID Code:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">2505</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Deposited By:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><span class="ep_name_citation"><span class="person_name">Scholarly Publications Librarian</span></span></td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Deposited On:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">22 Nov 2007 08:41</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Last Modified:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">09 Jan 2008 02:30</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">ePrint Statistics:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><a target="ePrintStats" href="/es/index.php?action=show_detail_eprint;id=2505;">View statistics for this ePrint</a></td></tr></table><p align="right">Repository Staff Only: <a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/cgi/users/home?screen=EPrint::View&eprintid=2505">item control page</a></p>
