Loyalty Islands Archaeological Project: Phase I (Tiga Island)

该项目的明确目的是通过加强我们对本地区和世界的了解来帮助保护澳大利亚。这项研究将大大加强澳大利亚、法国和法属太平洋领土之间的国际研究合作，并将通过文化遗产管理和旅游业的直接和间接附带利益，促进南太平洋的发展。这些成果将直接造福于国家/社区，因为在不确定的全球安全环境中，该项目所处理的这类社会、文化和历史问题越来越重要。

The project is explicitly intended to help safeguard Australia by strengthening our understanding of our region and the world. The study will substantially enhance international research cooperation between Australia, France and the French Pacific territories and will contribute to South Pacific development through its direct and indirect spin-offs for cultural heritage management and tourism. These outcomes will directly benefit the nation/community at a time when social, cultural and historical issues of the sort addressed by the project are assuming an ever-greater importance in an uncertain global security environment.
