A proposal for a Master Plan of Sustainable Archaeological Sites in Mexico.
A proposal for a Master Plan of Sustainable Archaeological Sites in Mexico.
Presentación PP_V2.ppsxThe archaeological practice and the participation of civil society are important tools for conservation, protection, dissemination and research of the nation's cultural heritage. However, these practices in Mexico are not carried out in the same way they occur in industrialized countries, where civil society collaborates with government entities in the tasks of protecting and conserving heritage. In this work, a Master Plan intends to be used as an academic and methodological guide by corresponding entities to improve the administration of the archaeological heritage of Mexico. This Plan contributes to solving the deficiencies of administration of the
archaeological heritage with low budget and personnel, limited social participation and unequal opportunities for economic, social and cultural growth. The analysis model comes from a prototype of private participation, taken from the level of the federation for the administration of the nation's assets as specific cultural assets, in this case archaeological. This plan converges from the particular to the general level, with local characteristics of each site. A set of standardized practices are prepared to conform a model of social participation to manage cultural heritage. The result yields a master planning model that is divided into several parts: archaeological facilities, operational zones, sustainable equipment of the archaeological site, archaeological community, concessionaires, authorities, service providers, areas of influence and connectivity, interpretive plan, diagnosis and challenges, development, financial analysis, development strategy, mission, vision and management plan. This master plan proposal can be replicated outside the Yucatan Peninsula and has implications in cultural public policy.
Analysis and Identification of Sustainable Public Policy for Management of Cultural and Natural Heritage in the Maya Region in Line with the Sustainable Development Goals
Analysis and Identification of Sustainable Public Policy for Management of Cultural and Natural Heritage in the Maya Region in Line with the Sustainable Development Goals
Magio et. al. WAC PPT.pptxThe present study identifies suitable sustainable public policy for the administration of archaeological zones in Mexico, particularly in the states of Yucatán, Campeche and Quintana Roo (Maya region). Given the rapid economic growth of the Southeastern region of Mexico, it is necessary to implement a comprehensive and sustainable form of administration for the cultural and archaeological heritage. Key components of the ideal policy are aligned to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Data is based on researchers’ own experiences on how these SDGs can act as a base for the much needed change in the management of Mexico´s archaeological zones. We are looking at a policy that has clear goals, objectives, concrete strategies and actions including: (1) Comprehensive plan, (2) Regional plan, (3) Land use plan—master plan, (4) Cultural tourism plan which covers ecotourism and nature based tourism, art centers, museums and monuments. The resource management plan should cover aspects like: (1) disaster planning, (2) operations and marketing, (3) interpretation, (4) budgetary issues and (5) financing. Success in the implementation of such a policy requires the strengthening of regional and local federalism, transparency, accountability, corporate governance and planning for sustainable cultural tourism development.
