Home / About EPHC: Priority Projects / Sustainable Heritage Tourism

The EPHC National Tourism and Heritage Taskforce, chaired by Reece McDougall, Director, NSW Heritage Office, was formed with representatives of Commonwealth, state and local governments, heritage organisations, the tourism industry, universities and Indigenous organisations. Click here for a list of the members.

As part of identifying opportunities for sustainable heritage tourism the Taskforce prepared: Going Places: Developing natural and cultural heritage tourism in Australia – Issues Paper.

This paper presents a national overview of the issues and opportunities for potential action. It provides a useful reference document for those working in both the heritage and tourism areas. It will assist in raising awareness of the diverse issues involved in protecting heritage places and building a sustainable tourism industry in regional Australia.

On 23 May the Environment Protection and Heritage Council agreed to make this Issues Paper publicly available. The paper can be downloaded below.

The EPHC National Tourism and Heritage Taskforce in consultation with key stakeholders will continue to refine a set of key opportunities arising from the Issues Paper.
