NSW Aboriginal Archaeology Future Forum 2025

The NSW Aboriginal Archaeology Future Forum is a one-day forum on First Nations archaeology in NSW for Aboriginal community, archaeological consultants, heritage managers and researchers. The forum has a focus on community and country, with a key aim to bring community aspirations regarding archaeological research to the fore. It provides an opportunity to share knowledge; showcase current projects and achievements; and discuss aspirations for the future of archaeological conservation, research and heritage management. The event includes presentations from individuals and panel discussions on a range of areas important to community archaeology.

This year the Forum will be held at the University of Wollongong, on Dharawal Country. Doors will open at 9am for a 9.30am start, and the Forum will finish at about 4pm. Morning tea and lunch will be provided. If you have any questions, please email us at NSWArchaeologyForum@gmail.com We are looking forward to seeing you at the Forum!

The Forum is presented by the AACAI NSW/ACT Chapter and the Australian Museum, with the generous support of APA Group, EMM Consulting, Heritage Now, Lantern Heritage, OzArk Environment and Heritage, Regal Heritage, and Umwelt.
