In 2020, Context led the community engagement as a Master Plan for Kamay Botany Bay National Park was shaped, and a new Plan of Management for the whole park was written by NPWS. The master plan is a non-statutory document that provides conceptual plans for part of this national park, proposing changes and improvements that reflect and support what is important about the place. It is a future-focused plan.
Throughout the master planning project, Context worked closely with the design team to ensure that community and stakeholder feedback was available to directly influence the design of the Master Plan. In addition to the workshops, feedback has been received through a variety of engagement methods including public exhibition from 28 April 2019 to 3 August 2019, culture days on Country for the local Aboriginal community, formal and informal interviews, focus groups, online and on-site surveys, kids quiz, information evenings and presentation to the La Perouse Local Aboriginal Land Council, and targeted interest group and local community information sessions and workshops (Master Plan, 2020:3).
