The Taungurung Land and Waters Council (TLaWC) is committed to guiding and being actively involved in development of projects that support healthy Country and People, and looks forward to forming partnerships that enable us to participate in self-determined ways.

We understand that there may be some impacts from developments, and we will guide how these impacts can be avoided or minimised on Taungurung Biik. We expect appropriate compensation from all developments that impact Country and to negotiate Benefit-sharing Agreements. We seek to share in the benefits of projects through opportunities that align with our principles, values, and objectives so that we can facilitate the health and well-being of our People and care for our Country.

The Taungurung Land and Waters Council (TLaWC) has developed the Cultural, Environmental, Social, Governance (CESG) Certification Framework to engage potential partners in discussions about the nature and type of partnering that we may pursue together. To begin the CESG Certification process we ask potential partners to demonstrate the following two key actions:

1. They are meeting or have plans in place to meet, their legislative requirements

2. Potential partner confirms they are committed to pursuing partnership with us, in ways that go beyond minimum legislative requirements.

Representatives of TLaWC will meet with potential partners to discuss their interest in proceeding with partnering discussions, on this basis. 

A timeframe of approximately 3-6 months will be needed to undertake the CESG Certification process.

Express your interest in the CESG Certification Framework through the Contact Us form.
