Australian Historic Themes Framework

The Australian Historic Themes Framework provides a valuable research tool, which can be used at the national, state or local level to assist in the identification, assessment, interpretation and management of heritage places.

The Framework was initiated and developed by the Australian Heritage Commission with the assistance of the State and Territory historic heritage agencies, consultants and heritage practitioners.
