Echoes CHM

An amazing kick start to 2026 with the ECHM Summer Seminars!

Last week was a busy one at the Echoes office, with internal seminars, workshops and training.

We wrapped up the week with some fantastic presentations highlighting the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration and a huge thank you to our guest presenters Peter Veth, Jo Thomson, Myles Mitchell, Dirima Cuthbert and Sven Ouzman.

We'd also like to thank the members of the Echoes team involved in bringing the whole week together and the Cockburn Health & Community Facility for hosting the event!

It was great to see many familiar faces from across the industry and we look forward to doing it again next year!

Members of the ECHM team were delighted to be in attendance at the inaugural Western Australia Archaeology and Heritage Assembly (WAAHA), hosted at the WA Maritime Museum last week.

ECHM's director and AACAI president Ian Ryan hosted a discussion panel with representatives from across the heritage industry that inspired passionate discussions and honest conversations about the current state of the industry and future directions for us to look towards.

With such a wide range of discussions from heritage practitioners across the state, fascinating projects and future research, we look forward to attending future WAAHA events!

A massive thank you to all involved in organising the Annual Trivia Night hosted by Australian Association of Consulting Archaeologists Inc. (AACAI's) WA chapter, at the Fremantle Bowling Club last week!

Congratulations to all the winners! It was a tough competition this year with over 80 people taking part, our ECHM team 'Trowel and Error' coming in second place!🥈

It was great to see so many familiar faces and we're looking forward to seeing you all there next year!
