Abstract

This study focuses on the current problems and challenges encountered in conserving heritage sites in the province of Quezon. Likewise, it aimed to determine the consensus regarding practices and strategies for conserving said heritage sites. This quantitative research obtained data from 50 respondents from LGU offices in charge of maintaining heritage sites and representatives from the provincial tourism office. Said respondents confirmed that environmental factors such as calamities and climate change take the worst toll on the heritage sites, exacerbated by a seemingly permanent lack of funding and trained and stable workforce, which can be traced to the inadequacy of public awareness and support. In response, public education was deemed a top priority; suggestions were made to include heritage conservation in school curricula and to conduct aggressive social media campaigns. Cost management also received emphasis in terms of sustainable and cost-effective preservation strategies, such as the use of alternative restoration materials, innovative techniques, and collaboration. Involving community members is seen as sustainable and mutually beneficial in terms of employment generation and boosting the LGU economy.
