Donald Horne - Recognition

Recognition

In 2008, the University of Canberra announced the establishment of the Donald Horne Institute for Cultural Heritage. It will be housed on campus in a purpose-built building that will be fully operational in 2011. The institute will have research and teaching programs, and an exhibition space. It will "be integrated with Canberra's cultural treasure houses, including the National Museum, National Gallery, National Library, National Archives and War Memorial." It is envisaged that it will also interact with a range of other organisations including Federal Parliament, government departments, Aboriginal organisations, other universities and UNESCO.

Famous quotes containing the word recognition:

    No democracy can long survive which does not accept as fundamental to its very existence the recognition of the rights of minorities.
    Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)

    Democracy and equality try to deny ... the mystic recognition of difference and innate priority, the joy of obedience and the sacred responsibility of authority.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    The person who designed a robot that could act and think as well as your four-year-old would deserve a Nobel Prize. But there is no public recognition for bringing up several truly human beings.
    C. John Sommerville (20th century)
