Our Team of Experts

  1. Ethnographers: Our ethnographers play a vital role in amplifying the voices of diverse cultures and providing a platform for these communities to share their stories, traditions, and perspectives. Specialising in conducting in depth field research, they engage in collaborative partnerships with communities, fostering a space where cultural narratives and wisdom can be expressed and heard.
  2. Anthropologists: Their expertise in social structures, cultural practices, and environmental stewardship ensures that mining and development initiatives proceed with a deep understanding of and respect for First Nations communities. This focus not only aids in developing culturally sensitive and ecologically sustainable strategies but also fosters trust and collaboration between developers and First Nations groups, leading to more effective and responsible project outcomes.
  3. Sociologists: Our sociologists focus on the structure and dynamics of societies. They play a crucial role in assessing the impact of development projects on communities, ensuring that social considerations are at the forefront of our work.
  4. Forensic Anthropologists: Specialising in the study of human remains, our forensic anthropologists are vital in projects involving historical human populations. Their work in historical grave excavations and the analysis of remains offers profound insights into past cultures and lifestyles.
