About the project
Unesco Project Historic Centre of Lima
📝 Detailed information
🏢 About the local organisation
The project aims to exhibit Rimac, the historic centre of Lima and its significance to volunteers and locals alike. More importantly, the project will attempt to revitalize Backus, a former brewing factory (currently a cultural centre), facilitating social and cultural exchanges between local and international participants, which will also lead to locals becoming more aware of the importance of Rimac and the preservation of World Heritage.
💼 What the programme involves
Volunteers will participate in in various activities such as emphasizing the importance of protecting Rimac among the local community and focusing on creating a more sustainable future for the site. Various networking activities will also give volunteers the opportunity to meet local government officials and actors in order to have a better context of the site’s history. More hands-on activities will immerse volunteers in the heart of the site to work on the preservation of paintings and furniture, and the restoration and cleaning of the site in general.
