Book & DVD. The Humayun's Tomb-Nizamuddin area, inhabited by a
vibrant local community, is visited by millions of tourists and
pilgrims each year. Conservation works being undertaken on the
monuments in this area have aimed to re-define standard
conservation practice in India by setting benchmarks in using a
craft-based approach, setting documentation standards, using a
participatory and multi-disciplinary approach, and using the
conservation initiative as a tool towards improving quality of life
for local communities. This book aims to inform the general public
about the discipline of conservation and the rationale behind the
successful conservation initiative and makes an argument for change
in conservation approach in India: from isolated monuments to an
urban approach that includes concern for the setting; from a
tender-based' approach to a quality-concerned method; amongst other
factors. Published in association with Aga Khan Trust for Culture,
New Delhi.
