Abstract

Heritage districts are a wealth, but most people don't realize its value. In fact, human deterioration is one of the worst means of deterioration and actually the most common when it comes to heritage districts. This is due to residents' or users' bad behaviors towards the built structures in such districts. The cause of this behavior is the local community's lack of awareness in heritage conservation being a part of the national identity; or even understanding its universal value if it exceeds the local value to become world heritage.
In this research, we focus on how educational curriculums do not teach the importance of heritage preservation as a non-renewable resource and do not highlight its sustainability, which will result in the loss of upcoming generations' right in benefiting from such heritage.
The research objective is to put a work plan that shows the means by which formal and informal conservation education can raise public awareness in conserving historic districts and even managing and developing them. The goal is to formulate a new generation of people that are capable of dealing with heritage treasures, be they residents, users, or managers; after having received the required education and skills that enable the formulation of a better future for this heritage.
