CULTURAL HERITAGE AS A FOCUS FOR RECONCILIATION IN POST-CONFUCT REGIONS Participatory Mapping, Conservation Philosophy and Interpretation
Culture is a basic need—culture gives hope to impacted communities and restores human dignity and contributes to continuity and a sense of identity—it is an integral part of human aid.(Prince Claus)People suffer greatly during conflicts.The loss of life, dissolution of families and the rifts in society are atrocious.During such times it is the human needs that prevail and must be addressed—an end to the conflict, first aid, food, shelter.But there must also be a view to the future-to mend the fabric of society, provide hope for communities and maintain a connection to the past.The time after a conflict is critical and must immediately address reconciliation and socio-economic development.One possibility is through the preservation,restoration and reconstruction of cultural heritage (Almagro, 2015).This paper will describe three good practice examples in post-conflict regions, Bosnia and ”Herzegovina, Cyprus and Kosovo where the conservation of cultural heritage is being use as a focus for reconciliation.Three tools: participatory mapping, creation of a conservation philosophy and development of an interpretation plan will be highlighted in each example.
