The publication has been designed as a didactic tool for use in academic programs, short courses, and workshops in heritage conservation, management, and planning. It is also relevant to educational and training programs in urban and regional planning, development studies, and dispute resolution.
It provides an opportunity for students and heritage professionals to learn about using a values-based process for decision making in heritage site management, including identifying stakeholders, eliciting their values and interests, writing a statement of significance, and considering stakeholder concerns in developing and selecting options for site conservation and management. It is also designed to provide an opportunity for learning about the application of consensus building strategies to heritage management.
The case study does not presume instructors or participants have any direct affiliation with or knowledge of the site of Jarash, or with the Kingdom of Jordan. It includes sufficient background information about the site and its context to complete the activities that it contains.
