| Abstrait: |
Heritage, both natural and cultural deserves to be treated with care and is vulnerable to neglect and apathy. Over past decades, in its quest for a ‘new India’, urban and infrastructure growth has been a-sympathetic to its built & natural heritage due to lack of awareness, knowledge and trained human resource. Indian heritage has a huge potential of contributing to the liveability index and UN’s sustainable development goals. Awareness building, public mobilisation towards cultural and ecological heritage and adequately trained and skilled human resource across the country for conservation is the requirement today. Technical education institutions sensitising of youth towards acknowledging and nurturing heritage through creation of environment for conservation learning and imparting necessary knowledge and skills need further impetus. State, Private Organisations and Corporates can provide this impetus to promote excellence in conservation discourses of technical education and to encourage and facilitate a conservation approach to urban and infrastructure development. |
