🏢 About the local organisation

Implemented for a second year following the successful experience in 2018, the project aims to raise awareness among visitors and the local community about the preservation of this World Heritage property, and aims at involving young people to develop their capacity to lead a campaign for sustainable conservation.

💼 What the programme involves

The volunteers will organize workshops on heritage conservation and will provide direct advice on how to create awareness among visitors, schools, colleges and the local community. In order to improve the project's outreach and participation, volunteers will perform dances, street drama and art competitions stimulating local engagement and ownership. Hands-on activities include clearing dead leaves, walls and monuments at the site, planting trees and restoring damaged artwork.
