The Willandra Lakes Region Plan of Management provides a framework for consistent decision-making and aims to:

  • develop a partnership between governments and the community for ongoing management of the Willandra
  • satisfy Australia’s obligations under the World Heritage Convention for the Willandra
  • develop a process that can serve as a model for preparing plans of management for other World Heritage properties
  • develop a values-based approach to managing a World Heritage Area.
