Short Description
This project contributes to the preservation and rehabilitation of the architectural heritage of Ukraine, by creating documentation of architectural monuments, strengthening the professional formation, and providing on-the-job training to a new generation of Ukrainian conservation architects. Over two academic years, the project will deliver comprehensive courses to two groups of third-year students, and to two cohorts of teachers from architectural schools across Ukraine. The courses will cover 3D documentation, architectural documentation, heritage analysis, conservation assessment, international conservation standards, and local legal regulations. The teaching will combine theoretical and practical components, including on-the-job training, which will result in datasets usable in conservation.
