Australian Museum Corporate Strategic Plan 2005-2008
Our Purpose
To inspire the exploration of nature and cultures.
Our Vision
A beautiful and sustainable natural world with vibrant and diverse cultures.
Our Values
As the Australian Museum, we strive to embody distinctly Australian values and qualities. We seek to be:
- egalitarian and fair minded
- willing to use humour and not take ourselves too seriously
- inquisitive and explorative
- creative
- outgoing
- respectful of the rights of others.
Our context
As the Australian Museum, we seek to explore the tensions that characterise our Australian context. We recognize that we are:
- a nation of Euro-British heritage, but now multi-cultured, located in south east Asia and the Pacific
- a young modern culture imposed on one of the oldest continuous cultures in the world
- a nation of mainly migrants trying to create a sense of belonging
- the most sparsely populated but most urbanized country in the world
- geographically isolated with a unique biodiversity, now challenged by invasives
- able to access freely a wide array of knowledge while needing to respect the intellectual property rights of its owners.
