    Governance, resourcing and consent settings ready for formal discussion

  4. 04

    A staged engagement plan with accountability built in

What is included

A complete first step—not a conversation without an outcome.

  • Readiness and project-context assessment
  • Initial authority and relationship map
  • Engagement purpose and decision-rights matrix
  • Methods, timing and participation budget framework
  • ICIP, consent and information-handling schedule
  • Report-back, evaluation and accountability plan

How it works

Clear from the beginning.

01

Ready the client

Test whether the project has the openness, time, budget, leadership and internal responsibility required to engage well.

02

Shape governance

Define purpose, roles, decision rights, cultural participation and the boundaries of client authority.

03

Sequence the work

Build a realistic pathway from preparation and formal approach through listening, co-framing, review and report-back.

04

Hand over clearly

Deliver the system, brief the responsible team and identify what must be confirmed with local cultural authorities.

Integrity built in

What this offer does not claim.

  • An authority map is an initial pathway, not a declaration of who speaks for Country.
  • Formal approaches and local participation proceed only when invited and appropriately resourced.
  • No cultural knowledge is collected or commercialised through the planning phase.
