Life on the Edge: Pre-Gold Rush Settlement in South Gippsland, Victoria

该项目将有助于唯物主义的角度来理解港口菲利普殖民地的发展。 该项目根据国家文化遗产论坛“澳大利亚文化遗产愿景”的要求，提供了一项专题背景研究，以支持新的国家遗产立法。 该项目通过提供对环境、背景和更广泛的文化景观的解释，证实了目前维多利亚遗产战略审查中确定的“整体环境”方法。 该项目将通过增加对该区域一项重要遗产资产的了解，促进提高区域旅游产品的内容。

The project will contribute materialist perpectives to the understanding of the development of the Port Phillip Colony. The project provides a thematic, contextual study as called for in the National Cultural Heritage Forum's 'Vision for Australia's Cultural Heritage' and required to support the new national heritage legislation. The project exemplifies the 'whole environment' approach identified in the present review of the Victorian Heritage Strategy by providing interpretations of setting, context, and broader cultural landscapes. The project will contribute to the enhancement of regional tourism product content by increasing the knowledge of one of the key heritage assets of the region.
