Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) or ‘Global Goals’. — James Ömer Bridge, Secretary-General of the UK National Commission for UNESCO is the only United Nations agency with a mandate for culture UNESCO and was instrumental in ensuring that the vital role of culture in achieving sustainable development was formally recognised in the international development agenda. Notably, the Heritage for Global Challenges report and its recommendations significantly build on the point made in the UK National Commission for UNESCO report, Cultural Heritage Innovation – Opportunities for International Development; that the role of cultural heritage is not fully recognised in the SDGs and associated targets. The Heritage for Global Challenges report goes some way to addressing this gap by making connections between a wide range of cultural heritage research projects that seek to address multiple SDG targets. In 2021, we are within the ten-year Decade of Action to deliver the SDGs by 2030. Since the SDGs were agreed, change is accelerating, not only due to the impact of COVID-19, but also as a result of challenges such as national and regional conflicts and threats to democracy from growing populism and nationalism, disinformation and the growth of social media and surveillance via information technology and artificial intelligence. These multi-layered threats bring with them specific threats for cultural heritage including the destruction of heritage sites and increasing disconnection between local communities and their heritage. UN Secretary-General, António Guterres, reflecting on the causes and uneven impacts of the COVID-19 crisis in the most recent UN SDG report, emphasises how the pandemic reinforces the significance of agreements such as the 2030 Agenda, the Paris Agreement on Climate Change, and the Addis Ababa Action Agenda and strengthens the case for internationally coordinated responses guided by the SDGs. Understanding and valuing heritage is integral to achieving the aims of these agreements and to building more equal, inclusive, and sustainable economies and societies.

On the outside, the garbhagriha is delegated by a pinnacle like shikhara, additionally called the vimana in the south. The place of worship assembling frequently incorporates a walking for parikrama (circumambulation), a mandapa gathering lobby, and at times an antarala waiting room and yard among garbhagriha and mandapa. There may promote mandapas or different structures, associated or disconnected, in enormous sanctuaries, together with other little sanctuaries in the compound.

  • Assessing the Form of a Kerala Temple Gopuram Through Material and Construction
    Cities’ Identity Through Architecture and Arts – Catalani et al. (Eds) © 2018 Taylor & Francis Group, London, ISBN 978-1-138-05409-7 Entrance gateway of Kerala temples: Assessing the form of a Kerala temple gopuram through material and construction M. Yamuna Vijayan MARG Institute of Design and Architecture, Swarnabhoomi, Tamil Nadu, India ABSTRACT: Every style of building construction reflects a clearly distinctive principle that represents a particular culture and era. In India, the temple and its associated structures evolved with time and the most identifiable difference is in their structure. Specifically in Kerala, a southern state of India, temple architecture is different from that in neighbour- ing states due to the obvious reason of its geography and various other factors. Gopurams (entrance gateways) are the principal structure of any temple complex. This led to the inves- tigation of the difference in the form of a gopuram in terms of its material and construction. The topic demands a literature study of Dravidian and Kerala gopurams, followed by case studies of different types to support the investigation. In this research, the major reason behind the differences was found to lie in the geography of the state, which itself can be cat- egorised into three different regions within the state such as Malabar, Kochi and Travancore. In addition, an analysis is done on the proportions of the gopurams. This is done by taking into account the dimensions of the temple as well as the structural elements of the gopuram. The conclusion summarises the principles of planning, differences in form, and the scope for future studies.
