Since last year we publish our World Heritage Watch Report before the annual World Heritage Committee Meeting, in order to contribute to the Committee’s decision-making in a timely fashion. This is a demanding routine as the time to prepare the Report is very limited: between 1 February, when most State of Conservation Reports by State Parties are submitted to the WH Centre, and mid-May, when the Draft Decisions are finalized for the upcoming Committee Meeting. We recognize that this useful, yet tight annual routine puts considerable strain on our network members, who must send us their reports in time. Many of them are located in remote locations with only intermittent internet connection; others are not very well versed in legal English or French language. They have to track and check the facts and statements in the State of Conservation Reports, and to compile and select infor- mation which is relevant for the Committee.

  • ABSTRACTS Day 2 | Friday, October 13
    ABSTRACTS Day 2 | Friday, October 13 Panel #1 Temples and Texts- in honor of M. A. Dhaky Chair: Adam Hardy (Cardiff University) Discussant: Michael W Meister (University of Pennsylvania) Architectural practice in South Asia has been accompanied by a plethora of ‘canonical’ treatises since the early medieval period. Temples loom largely in these texts. Engagement with a vāstuśāstra was the basis of Ram Raz’s 1834 Essay on the Architecture of the Hindus, but subsequent scholarship has largely steered clear of the textual dimension. Towards the mid-20th century, traditional architectural practitioners in India initiated their own published discourses in parallel, and to some extent symbiotically, with the academic ones. M. A. Dhaky was instrumental in this exchange from the 1960s onwards. Dhaky played a pivotal role in refining the classification of temple forms, establishing an appropriate Sanskrit terminology, and in studying vāstu texts diachronically. Subsequent developments that build on these achievements are reaching an important stage. The aim of this panel is to take stock of these and explore the many remaining questions about how texts and practice relate. Rhythm, in Verse and Architecture Libbie Mills (University of Toronto) The Aparājitapṛcchā, dated by Dhaky to the latter half of the 12th century, is a compendium that draws on materials from multiple texts, including the Samarāṅgaṇasūtradhāra and Jayapṛcchā (Dhaky 1961). It serves as a thorough presentation of architectural theory, encompassing domestic, ritual and civic constructions. At Chapter 67, titled śāstracchandanirṇayaḥ, an apparent departure of topic is made, to present the matter of chandas, metre, in verse. The departure is understood when, in the following chapter, number 68, titled ṣaṭchandanirṇayādhikāraḥ, the idea of chandas in building is discussed.

  • Heritage and Resilience
    HERITAGE AND RESILIENCE Heritage and Resilience: The Pakistan Perspective By Yasmeen Lari, SI CEO, Heritage Foundation of Pakistan My country today is confronted with enormous challenges: a vicious cycle of poverty and illiteracy, a porous border with Afghanistan driving militancy and violence, Taliban and drone attacks. It is also predicted to be one of the most vulnerable due to climate change. Pakistan is a veritable treasure house of ancient heritage, sites and monuments spanning scores of centuries as home to 6,000 years old Indus Valley civilization of Mehergarh and Moenjodaro fame - its spectacular historic urban cores depositories of age old traditions, that also encompass Alexander and Ashoka’s Graceo-Buddhist legacy of Takht-i-Bahi and Taxila, the Sultanate Makli necropolis, scintillating Mughal jewels of the Lahore Fort and Shalamar Gardens, Ranjit Singh’s impressive legacy, striking Hindu temples, and imposing British colonial heritage. It is a rich reservoir of intangible heritage and age-old value system, a land of mysticism and Sufi saints, steeped in folklore and ancient wisdom, enriched by devotional music and ecstatic dance, spreading One Reality in the pursuit of peace, tolerance and pluralism, regardless of religious orientation. While ageless arabesques embellish its tangible heritage, the womenfolk weave magical patterns in their crafts taught to them by their mothers and their mothers before them, stimulated by oral history and time tested reserves of local knowledge they live in isolated rural habitat sequestered from shining technology-ridden urban centres. It is these women and their children that suffer the brunt of recurring disasters: 73,000 lives lost and 600,000 houses collapsed in the wake of Earthquake 2005 while 800,000 families are today without shelter due to the great floods of 2010, 2011 and 2012.
