Cultural heritage sites embody meaning, memories, and stories. They symbolize our individual, community, and national identities. In this assignment, you will consider how the role of cultural heritage and shared experiences with that heritage changes as populations immigrate, as our economies change, and as the landscape changes around us in a globalized world. How should we consider those sites representing our collective heritage into our everyday lived experiences? How can we protect those sites, and how can we help teach each other (and the rest of the world) to appreciate the meaningful places or monuments and histories of cultures around the world? This Individual Project (IP) provides you with the chance to explore how humanities organizations work toward building and sustaining cultural connections within and between populations by protecting and educating the world about cultural heritage today and in the future.

Discuss ideas on how tourists visiting these sites can generate revenue and employment for the local economy.
