Within the ever changing urban and suburban environments, historic places (including districts, structures and landscapes) are continuously the subjects of planning and economic development programs. Successfully integrating them within projects requires consistent evaluation.
This 3 hour webinar will further develop the critical thinking and problem solving skills of those currently in the field with a vision to explore historic preservation from an international perspective. Course participants will have the opportunity to apply their acquired knowledge to case study exercises.
Participants completing Global Solutions to Local Challenges: Case Studies from International Historic Preservation will be able to:
- Incorporate the key concepts of significance and value in projects surrounding historic places.
- Discuss and practice the historic preservation philosophies and principles that inform cities and countries globally.
- Understand the impact of international preservation legislation and policies and their relationship to strengthening management practices.
- Compare and contrast international approaches to those in the United States.
- Increase awareness of international challenges and trends.
Global Solutions to Local Challenges: Case Studies from International Historic Preservation is appropriate for those working within planning; economic development; historic preservation at the federal, state or local levels; non-profit organizations and private consultants in the aforementioned fields.
