Description:

From Adelaide students fly to Alice Springs to study conservation management in Australia�s Red Centre at Uluru and the West MacDonnell Ranges; following a flight to Darwin students spend several days studying habitats such as Kakadu�s monsoon forests, rivers and escarpments; then on to Cairns where study sites include the tropical rainforest and the Great Barrier Reef. Heritage Management develops an understanding of the natural and cultural values of these areas and how these values are managed. At each study site students and university staff participate with local managers in case studies which illustrate both the ecological and social aspects of habitat management.
