The purpose of this Policy Note is to
survey Timor-Leste's cultural heritage in relation to
infrastructure development and offer policy options for
conserving and developing cultural heritage assets,
particularly in relation to sustainable tourism.
Infrastructure development can expose cultural heritage
assets to new pressures that require new and/or improved
measures for conservation. Equally, such development can
unlock the potential of cultural heritage assets to provide
opportunities for sustainable social and economic benefits
for communities. As Timor-Leste makes major investments in
its infrastructure in the coming years, it has an
opportunity to maximize the benefits of its rich cultural
heritage and minimize the risks of damage to important
cultural heritage sites. Timor-Leste's cultural
heritage is now subject to an unprecedented exposure to the
impacts of infrastructure development. From 2008 to 2012,
the national budget expanded fivefold, and the 2012 budget
allocated 48 percentage of spending for infrastructure,
chiefly electricity, roads and the development of the
'Tasi Mane' area petroleum infrastructure. The
legal framework for safeguarding cultural heritage and for
promoting sustainable development based on the cultural
value of these sites is, however, still embryonic. In this
context, adapting policy to best conserve and develop
Timor-Leste's unique cultural heritage is crucial. |
