Dates:
Workshop: Friday 22 October 2010
Conference: Friday 25 and Saturday 26 October 2011

These academic and community events examine the ways in which the people of Gippsland respond to and interact with the Gippsland environment.

The Gippsland Environments workshop uncovers stories of our Gippsland landscape through an examination of written records and non-textual sources.

The Gippsland Environments conference will consider how the region has shaped the Gippsland people and how they in turn have shaped their surroundings. Conference themes include Aborigines and early Gippsland; the use of natural resources; management of the environment; the landscape, flora and fauna of Gippsland; and conservation and representations of the environment.
