LET'S JUST FIND STUFF OUT

LINK TO HOW


Who are the people who have a sense ownership?

What is their interest?  Why might they have an interest?

What have they got invested?  

 When did Winifred West gift her investment 
in Sturt propertyto Winifred West Schools Ltd?

AND MORE STILL!

An audit of cognitive ownerships reveals the confluences and conflicts in ownership claims. If we abandon the notion that there can be a hierarchical structure to the ownership of place, – landscapes here again – it is possible that managers of cultural property can begin:

• To work towards accommodating claims in the context of coexistent cognitive ownerships;

• To resolve conflicts and tensions over usage and access; and

• To establish appropriate planning processes and management systems.

Who are these cognitive owners? The simple answer is almost everyone but a list of them must be inclusive rather than exclusive or privileged and it must be an ‘open list’. More important than knowing 'who' is knowing what their interest and ownerships are and the cultural context in which an ownership is claimed. Knowing that allows for the accommodation of inclusive and holistic planning and management processes.
