Cultural sustainability in Australian country towns: amenity, mobility, and everyday life

通过探索三个乡村城镇的文化和文化设施的日常经验，这个跨学科的项目提供了澳大利亚农村文化可持续性复杂性的第一个全面的文件。我们将探讨人口流动问题;个人和社区与地方和历史的关系;对地方，国家和全球文化影响的社会和经济适应性;以及文化基础设施和遗产在社区福祉和可持续性中的作用。项目成果包括学术出版物和演示文稿;一系列社区驱动的数字文化地图;以及社区和政府关于文化对可持续性影响的反馈。

By exploring the everyday experiences of culture and cultural amenity in three country towns, this cross-disciplinary project provides the first comprehensive documentation of the complexity of cultural sustainability within rural Australia. We will explore issues of demographic mobility; individual and community relationships to places and histories; social and economic adaptability to local, national and global cultural influences; and the role of cultural infrastructure and heritage in community well-being and sustainability. Project outcomes include scholarly publications and presentations; a series of community-driven digital cultural maps; and feedback for community and government on the impact of culture on sustainability.
