Our People


Dr Richard Martin
Dr Richard Martin
Director, Anthropologist and Native Title Specialist

Richard is an anthropologist who has worked in the Gulf Country (among other places) since 2007 as a native title researcher and cultural heritage specialist. He has conducted anthropological fieldwork, interviews and genealogical research as part of native title claims, including work on the resolution of complex boundary dispute issues in highly politicised environments. His work has also included cultural heritage surveys in remote and difficult terrain, including the identification and assessment of places of cultural and spiritual significance to traditional owners.

His post-PhD fieldwork has focused on the meaning and significance of water in the Gulf Country, as well as Aboriginal perceptions of native and introduced species.

Dr Ben Hall
Anthropological Consultant

Ben is an applied anthropologist and user experience researcher. His work in user experience research involved designing and building interactive mapping experiences for state (Queensland Globe) and local governments, utilities and numerous authorities. Before moving to Brisbane, Ben was an applied anthropologist in the Northern Territory. He has published on the social formation of wonder and his PhD research was on Christian politics in Isabel, Solomon Islands. Ben's association with the island of Isabel, and Solomon Islands more broadly, came through the friends he made working for the Pacific Islands Forum Fisheries Agency in Honiara.
