Summary: In Asia and the Pacific region, there are various forms of cultural heritage which are of great value from a global point of view. Proper investigation, analysis, preservation and development of these sites and remains are required of heritage professionals, in order to ensure that this important cultural heritage is safeguarded for future generations. ACCU Nara in partnership with ICCROM and Bunkacho has been organizing training courses since 2000 on this topic with a view to building the capacities of professionals who have been working on cultural heritage protection in the region. This training course aims to provide participants with the latest methodologies and technologies for investigation, conservation and management of archaeological sites.

The objectives of the course are to:

provide participants with knowledge of principles and methodologies for protection of archaeological sites;
provide participants with knowledge of the principles, methodologies and techniques concerning development and utilization of archaeological sites;
provide participants with knowledge and related techniques of recording and analytical methods for archaeological sites;
provide participants with an opportunity to network with colleagues from the region and share experiences.
