Valorisation and Management of Cultural Heritage Sites of Jericho

This book explores the valorisation, management, and conservation issues and their impacts on the safeguarding and developing of the cultural heritage of Jericho. It sets up proper policies and strategies for better sustainable management and conservation of its cultural heritage based on examining the main jurisdiction, management, valorisation and planning frameworks that have direct or indirect impacts on the conservation and safeguarding of its cultural heritage properties, which have strongly suffered from poor conservation, management and valorisation interventions. The value-driven management approach based on fieldwork and data analysis was used to holistically assess the conflicted relationships between safeguarding Jericho's cultural heritage sites, and the economic developments. It sets up steadiness scientific proactive policies for appropriate management and conservation of its cultural heritage, attempting to avoid reaction and ad hoc conservation and valorisation decisions that can result in unanticipated and negative consequences in the short, mid and long-terms.
