Description

This book explores how a human-centred approach to conservation can change practice in the heritage sector. Currently, professionals often lack the use of social science research methodologies to manage cultural landscapes and assess historical significance.

The authors aim to bridge the gap between theory and application by positioning this book in a transdisciplinary space that brings together different perspectives without losing sight of the goal of benefiting all people through heritage conservation practice.

By exploring the nature of human-centred heritage conservation, the book seeks to create an emancipated approach that successfully engages diverse ontological and epistemological perspectives.
