Who is this heritage for and how should it be presented and explained? If you are passionate about any aspect of heritage, this course will enable you to understand and contribute to policy on heritage matters. The course first considers what buildings, places and things should be considered worthy of protection as ‘heritage’, including the difficulty of capturing ephemeral human experience and memories. It then reviews the process of documenting, listing, conserving and interpreting objects of heritage, focusing on the agencies involved and the decision-making process. It concludes with considering how to manage heritage sites, and how to resolve the issue of visitor participation and tourism vs conserving the authentic quality of fragile objects, buildings and places.
