    DRAFT FOR PUBLIC COMMENT Grampians Region Climate Adaptation Strategy 2021–2025 DRAFT FOR PUBLIC COMMENT Who is this document for? Victoria’s Climate Change Act requires the Government to ‘take strong action to build resilience to, and reduce the risks posed by, climate change and protect those most vulnerable.’11 Development of this community-led Grampians Region Climate Adaptation Strategy and coordination of its implementation has been funded by the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning (DELWP). The Strategy was written collaboratively by members of Regional Climate Adaptation Groups (RCAG) representing state government, agencies, local government, universities, farmers, business and community in close consultation with key stakeholders throughout the Grampians Region. It is intended that everyone involved can see their own climate adaptation aspirations reflected. Efforts across the Region can be better coordinated, leading to improved outcomes for communities and the environment. Community groups, local governments, agencies and organisations can use this document to: • Align their own climate adaptation planning and projects to regional goals and outcomes, providing opportunities for partnerships and collaboration to maximise collective impact. • Apply for grants funded by DELWP. • Support funding applications for other government, corporate and philanthropic grants. Activities aligned with these goals and outcomes will be able to demonstrate a high level of strategic thinking at a regional level, stakeholder engagement

  • A Grampians Massacre? an Analysis of the Participant’S Account of an Early Whyte Brothers Massacre in the Portland District
    A Grampians Massacre? An analysis of the Participant’s account of an early Whyte Brothers massacre in the Portland district by PD Gardner (written with assistance from the Search Foundation.This is an unpublished essay completed about 2010) The account of this massacre - which I consider a primary source and not as well known as it should be - went as follows: “ ‘Why' said one of them, the elder of the two, ‘I can remember when they used to shoot down the blacks in this colony as you would do kangaroos, all because they sometimes killed a few sheep. I remember down in the Port District, when the four Parks and three other men, I was one of them, shot sixty-nine in one afternoon. The devils had stolen about 100 sheep and driven them away to the ranges. When they got them there they broke their legs to prevent them escaping, and were killing them and eating them at their leisure ... We all mounted horses, and armed with rifles set off in hot pursuit. It was early morning when we started, and about the middle of the day we came up with the black rascals, and a rare chase we had of it. They set off like mad, about one hundred and fifty of them, never showing fight in the least. The ranges were so rocky that we had to dismount and follow them on foot, and after two or three hours chase we got them beautiful - right between a crossfire, a steep rock on one side they could not climb, and rifles on each of the other.

  • Piracy, Illicit Trade, and the Construction of Commercial
    Navigating the Atlantic World: Piracy, Illicit Trade, and the Construction of Commercial Networks, 1650-1791 Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University by Jamie LeAnne Goodall, M.A. Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2016 Dissertation Committee: Margaret Newell, Advisor John Brooke David Staley Copyright by Jamie LeAnne Goodall 2016 Abstract This dissertation seeks to move pirates and their economic relationships from the social and legal margins of the Atlantic world to the center of it and integrate them into the broader history of early modern colonization and commerce. In doing so, I examine piracy and illicit activities such as smuggling and shipwrecking through a new lens. They act as a form of economic engagement that could not only be used by empires and colonies as tools of competitive international trade, but also as activities that served to fuel the developing Caribbean-Atlantic economy, in many ways allowing the plantation economy of several Caribbean-Atlantic islands to flourish. Ultimately, in places like Jamaica and Barbados, the success of the plantation economy would eventually displace the opportunistic market of piracy and related activities. Plantations rarely eradicated these economies of opportunity, though, as these islands still served as important commercial hubs: ports loaded, unloaded, and repaired ships, taverns attracted a variety of visitors, and shipwrecking became a regulated form of employment. In places like Tortuga and the Bahamas where agricultural production was not as successful, illicit activities managed to maintain a foothold much longer.

  • 16 November 2018 Jill Gallagher AO Victorian Treaty
    16 November 2018 Jill Gallagher AO Victorian Treaty Advancement Commissioner 116 Cardigan Street Carlton VIC 3053 By email to: [email protected] Dear Jill Submission on the proposed Aboriginal Representative Body model As you know, the Federation of Victorian Traditional Owner Corporations is the peak body representing the interests of Victorian Traditional Owners who have or are in the process of gaining recognition under the Native Title Act 1993 (Cth), Traditional Owner Settlement Act 2010 (Vic), or the Aboriginal Heritage Act 2006 (Vic). Traditional Owner corporations are the primary vehicle through which traditional groups and bodies (however described, be they nations, peoples or clans) have organised for the purpose of asserting and exercising traditional rights to country. We acknowledge that the proposal put forward by the Victorian Treaty Advancement Commission (Commission) envisions such corporations playing a substantial role in the Aboriginal Representative Body, and accordingly, we welcome this opportunity to respond to the proposed model. Please find enclosed our submission. As you can see, we generally support the proposal, and commend the Commission for its diligent work in its development. However, we also provide a number of recommendations which we believe may ultimately strengthen the model and the Treaty process in general. If you have any questions or would like to discuss our submission further, please do not hesitate to contact me. Yours sincerely Marcus Stewart Chief Executive Officer PO Box 431 North Melbourne VIC 3051 (03) 9321 5388 [email protected] www.fvtoc.com.au ABN: 40 164 514 121 Submission on the proposed Aboriginal Representative Body model Introduction This submission is a response to the proposed structure of the Aboriginal Representative Body (ARB), as developed by the Victorian Treaty Advancement Commission (Commission) and set out in the publication titled Treaty Statewide Gathering, dated 25 September 2018 (Proposal).

  • Inquiry Into the Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on the Tourism and Events Sectors Submission 119
    LC EIC Inquiry into the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the tourism and events sectors Submission 119 Parliament of Victoria, Legislative Council Economy and Infrastructure Committee Inquiry into the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the tourism and events sectors Museums Victoria submission 1. About Museums Victoria Museums Victoria is Australasia’s largest museum organisation, comprising three museums – Melbourne Museum, Scienceworks and the Immigration Museum – the Royal Exhibition Building and IMAX Melbourne. In 2018-19 we connected with more than 9 million people at our museums, across our digital platforms and through our outreach program. Museums Victoria manages the State Collection of more than 17 million objects that record Victoria’s social, natural and cultural histories. This collection is a vital foundation for research and ongoing discovery into Victoria’s society and environment, with research shared globally through partnerships with leading research institutions. 2. Coronavirus (COVID-19) impacts The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic’s impact has had both immediate and long-term impact on Museums Victoria. Lockdowns during 2020 caused Melbourne Museum, Scienceworks and the Immigration Museum to be closed to all visitors for a total of 35 weeks. This directly impacted almost all revenue streams for the museums, with no admissions or related commercial activity (onsite retail, retail and event catering, venue hire, car park). The museums reopened to the public on 16 November 2020. While there was strong demand for tickets, capacity and density limitations slowed recovery during a typically peak visitation period. The lack of tourism audiences has been and continues to be particularly significant.
