THIS MONTH'S SPOTLIGHT: Heritage Conservation Strategies
from GDRC's Programme on Heritage and Conservation
Why heritage? Effective conservation of heritage
resources not only help in revitalizing local economies,
but also brings about a sense of identity, pride and
belonging to the area's residents.
Heritage is now no longer just the perview of the
field of archeology, and a number of stakeholders,
not in the least, the local community, need to be
involved for the success of heritage conservation
strategies.
GDRC has been working on these and related issues.
Resources on this topic are available at:

As with all sections of GDRC, contributions, comments
and suggestions are always welcome from users and

FOCUS ON GDRC: LEARNING LESSONS
What, when, where, which, why who, how, whether
Asking different types of questions will help
build the 'big' picture ...
In order to better understand any issue we are
studying, it is necessary to look at it from all
perspectives - so that a thorough assessment can be made.
So it is useful to keep the 'question starters'
what, when, where, which, why, who, how, whether -
in mind when gathering information on an issue.
This eanbles us to develop a big picture, incorporating
relevant views of all stakeholders.
There are many ways to make sure that comprehensive
information is collected - and this is one fun way
to ask questions (and maybe confuse the issue
even more!).
