cultural resource management

Cultural Resource Management is a process used to manage and mitigate decisions about scarce cultural resources in an equitable manner. It involves assessing and balancing the preservation of cultural sites, artifacts, and practices with development needs. It requires collaboration with stakeholders like local tribal communities, historians, and government agencies to respect and maintain cultural heritage for future generations.

Effective CRM also demands understanding the historical and cultural contexts of resources, engaging with local tribal knowledge, and using modern technologies in archaeology and conservation. This approach protects cultural richness while supporting sustainable development.

Public education is vital in CRM, as fostering appreciation for cultural heritage encourages community support for preservation efforts, enriching the cultural landscape and providing educational opportunities.
