| Summary: |
The Master Plan for the integral rehabilitation of Old
Havana, assigned to the Office of the Historian of the City
of Havana, is pleased to announce the 6th International meeting
on Management of Historical Centers considered a space of a singular
and necessary reflection for those of us who have undertaken the
challenge to rehabilitate Historical Centers. This year the Historical
Center of Havana City will celebrate the 25 anniversary of being
declared UNESCO’s Cultural Heritage of the Humanity and the
sixth encounter will be dedicated to this anniversary. The event
includes in this edition the endorsement of the Swiss Agency for
Development and Cooperation (COSUDE), the Development Program of
the United Nations (PNUD) and UNESCO, among other agencies that
show again their willingness to be an active part of this space
of thought with clear integrating samples for the region.
The event will last three days and its dynamics will be developed
from the presentation, the first day, of a series of lectures followed
by a panel of discussion in plenary. In the following days two thematic
workshops will be carried out in parallel: Determination of the
hard nuclei that allow ¨producing¨ the transference of successful
experiences to other contexts and the evaluation of the capacity
of transfere of at least two regional experiences considered successful
at a regional and international scale.
In the preceding week, from 26 to 30 November, a pre-event course
will take place, where the following topics will be approached:
Preparation of a Urban Diagnosis previous to the formulation of
an Integral Urban Plan, the performance of urban marketing to foster
actions in favor of urban development, Presentation of the Management
