Our Built Heritage

Our Built Heritage 'Our Built Heritage' forum for sharing of ideas, concerns and updates related to built heritage.

India with its long ongoing traditions and multitude of cultural practices, has a vast built heritage, both in terms of typologies and knowledge systems. The understanding of built heritage has to expand beyond the prevalent notion of viewing it from a distance as ‘picturesque monuments’ and ‘ruins’. Most of us are directly or indirectly associated with built heritage. We live within it or around

it, many- a- times without realising the fact that the built heritage is as dynamic as the culture that it withholds. This realisation is important to enhance our level of engagement with it. The tapping of the potential of this engagement is all the more important with the current political emphasis on cultural tourism. This forum is to take the discussion forward, exploring questions such as:-
• How do we take a fresh look at built heritage as a dynamic entity?
• How do we explore the idea that our built heritage is there to help us and not the other way round?
• How do we reconnect with and highlight the significance of our built heritage in more constructive and meaningful ways in the current built fabric?
