The Board of the Wet Tropics Management Authority invites interested and motivated people to become members of the Community Consultative Committee (2023-2026). This is an exciting opportunity to become part of a key group contributing to new approaches to World Heritage management and making a difference to the exceptional Wet Tropics World Heritage Area.
The Community Consultative Committee supports the Wet Tropics Management Authority Board by providing advice on community aspirations and interests in the contemporary management of the World Heritage Area. Through cross-sectoral discussion and collaboration the Committee contributes to creative and innovative solutions to complex management challenges while ensuring that Australia’s World Heritage obligation is met in relation to the Wet Tropics. The Authority seeks representation from a broad geographic range across the Wet Tropics.
Committee members will be appointed to the end of the 2023-2026 term. The Committee will meet a minimum of two times a year with most meetings held in Cairns. Committee membership is on a voluntary basis as per Queensland Government policy, with Rainforest Aboriginal committee members are paid in accordance with the Department of the Environment, Tourism, Science and Innovation (DETSI) First Nations Payment Guide.
