Australian Heritage Advocacy Alliance creates campaigns designed to raise awareness about the value of heritage assets and to influence the heritage policy agenda at key political moments.
Arson at Old Parliament House, Canberra, January 2022.
AHAA has no membership base. It is simply an alliance of concerned heritage stakeholders and enthusiasts – organisations, groups, networks, individuals, etc – all sharing a serious concern that currently there is no effective heritage agenda in relation to policy and funding to preserve and manage our heritage assets in Australia.
Upcoming 2022 Victorian Election Campaign
The AHAA (Victoria) Campaign Strategy involves email contact with all heritage stakeholders including peak bodies, organisations and individual thought-leaders in the heritage sector in Victoria.
Those registering their support for the AHAA Campaign are participating to ensure that the significance of State heritage assets is acknowledged by candidates across the electorates of Victoria.
Heritage stakeholders have influence and they vote.
