Title
Jordan. Al Mafraq, First International Workshop on Applications of Geomatics Engineering in Natural and
Cultural Heritage Conservation and Management at Al Al-Bayt University
Description
The USAID Sustainable Cultural Heritage Through Engagement of Local Communities Project, implemented by ACOR, supported and participated in a number of special events, high-level meetings, lectures, and conferences from 2014 – 2018. Such events provided opportunities to exchange knowledge, develop and present policies and guidelines, plan collaborations, and strengthen the community of practice around Jordan’s heritage. In April 2017, SCHEP co-organized the First International Workshop on Applications of Geomatics Engineering in Natural and Cultural Heritage Conservation and Management in partnership with Al Al-Bayt University as a part of the project’s efforts to build the capacities of local universities. The workshop brought together more than 300 experts in urban planning, environmentalism, and cultural heritage, university students, and members of both the public and private sectors, and introduced cutting-edge technologies as well as new applications for traditional techniques. A number of local companies who provide services in fields related to geomatics engineering were invited to display their technologies and services to archaeologists and researchers who attended the workshop.
