AHI is the professional body for people and organisations working across the interpretation sector. We support meaningful connections between people, places, stories and ideas. Our community brings together practitioners, educators, designers, curators, consultants, organisations and volunteers who share a belief in the power of interpretation to create engaging experiences and deepen understanding of our natural and cultural heritage. Through best practice, advocacy and professional development, we champion excellence across the sector.
