Course Objective and Content

Course Objectives: To introduce all university students to the concept of cultural heritage preservation; In this way, to ensure that they have an idea about participatory conservation within their own expertise and participate in the processes.
Course Content: As residents of an ancient geography like Anatolia, we will try to get to know the historical environments of the settlements here, which have outstanding universal values. Since the participation of all local people, not just experts in the field, is necessary to preserve these values, within the scope of this course, we will try to understand the values of our cultural heritage by discussing them from different perspectives, focusing on Istanbul's World Heritage Sites. In addition, getting to know other World Heritage Sites in our country and addressing various aspects of preserving our rich cultural heritage constitute the main line of the course. By pushing the boundaries of participatory conservation, students will be expected to reveal the contributions that different disciplines can make to the cultural heritage through their research and to be able to express this through various methods (presentation, poster, video, etc.). The course will be supported with intensive field trips and the active participation of students taking the course will be ensured.
