A comprehensive guide on disaster
preparedness for cultural heritage was produced by the
international center for the study of preservation and
restoration and the committee of the blue shield about 10
years ago to provide guidelines for local and national
authorities in countries and regions at risk of natural
hazards. As seen in many countries where cultural assets are
irreplaceably lost or severely damaged (e.g., the
2,500-year-old citadel of Bam in Iran was reduced to rubble
by an earthquake in late 2003), practical precautionary
measures can safeguard important cultural resources. For
preventive conservation, risk management can provide a
framework for decision making. There are four recognized
steps to using a risk management approach for preservation
issues: (i) identify all risks to heritage; (ii) assess the
magnitude of each risk; (iii) identify possible mitigation
strategies; and (iv) evaluate the costs and benefits
associated with each strategy. |
