Abstract

Authenticity plays a pivotal role in addressing the primary challenges encountered in disaster planning, particularly when it comes to assessing vulnerability and evaluating the spatial distribution of shelter demand and resources. Ensuring the accuracy and reliability of data is essential for effectively managing available resources at each evacuation center, as well as for accommodating evacuees and ensuring the safety of both staff and refugees. In real-life circumstances, the authenticity of the information gathered becomes even more critical, as an imbalance in shelter and population distribution often hinders access to evacuation shelters. In this paper, the researchers introduce a spatial assessment technique that not only analyzes vulnerability but also authentically assesses the spatial distribution of shelter demand and supplies, thereby enhancing the overall effectiveness of disaster planning in Tubay, Agusan del Norte, Philippines. The study focuses on Tubay, Agusan del Norte, Philippines, taking into account spatial accessibility. The researchers found that out of the 33 shelters assessed, 21 are feasible locations for evacuation centers, and approximately 51% of the total population points are vulnerable to flooding. Utilizing GIS maps, the results reveal a significant decrease in overall shelter capacity to 64.26%. The study's findings emphasize the critical need for evaluating the relationship between vulnerable shelters and the demand for resources at each location. This information serves as a practical tool, offering flexibility in terms of data availability for decision-makers, enabling them to investigate areas, and providing a valuable reference for developing and improving emergency management decisions and strategies.

Abstract

Physical changes to built heritage are usually a major cause for concern when reviewing approaches to conservation and adaptation to the historic built environment. The hictorical area Kudus Kulon has witnessed significant changes in its environmental conditions, not only includes physical transformation, but also involves the social and economic dynamics that develop around it. Physical changes to built heritage are usually a major cause for concern when reviewing approaches to conservation and adaptation to the historic built environment. This study aims to reveal the changes and continuity of the Kudus Kulon historical area in the context of heritage preservation. This qualitative research employs a case study approach, focusing on Kudus Kulon as a single case. Through observations and interviews with key informants, the aim is to present an unbiased perspective on the intangible aspects. The findings in this study will enrich cultural theory through its ability to dialogue value systems, activities, and artefacts in the context of change and continuity in the historic district of Kudus Kulon. The result shows the continuity of fundamental aspects in the value system (belief, norm, and local wisdom) underscores the resilience of the system and its ability to navigate the complexities of time without compromising the integral values that define its cultural identity. This research provides a strong foundation for future studies to explore the intricate dynamics between core values, societal development, and adaptations on heritage site in urban area, with a specific focus on tangible aspects like artefacts and activities.

Abstract

Singapore is increasingly preserving historically significant structures through adaptive reuse, notably using historic house museums to connect with local history. NUS Baba House, a well-preserved Peranakan townhouse, is a prime example of this. Evaluating heritage interpretation at NUS Baba House can clarify relevant criteria, but existing principles lack specificity for the heritage interpretation of Singaporean historic house museums. This paper systematically assesses NUS Baba House's heritage interpretation using a literature-based framework, providing tailored recommendations across five dimensions: authenticity, sustainability, professionalism, guided tour interactivity, inclusiveness, and community engagement. While further validation through case studies is needed, this study offers a practical framework to enhance heritage interpretation at Singaporean historic house museums, filling a gap in current guidelines.

Abstract

Architecture acts as a facade to the world, in which one can understand the insides of the people, religion, culture, and much more about a city. Using humanitarian architecture as a guide for reconstructing, as well as the long-term impacts of the urban planning of a city in terms of sustainability and authenticity, this study answers the questions of how the City's character and identity can be maintained while providing quick assistance via humanitarian architecture. What are the challenges that prevent humanitarian architecture from enhancing cities' authenticity, and how can we overcome them? By examining Al-Diriyah project, this study aims to look into the complex relationship of humanitarian architecture with the branding and authenticity of Riyadh, Saudi Arabia from the perspective of residents and non-residents. A blended qualitative and quantitive approach was applied as a comprehensive methodology to achieve the objectives. This study will help the application of humanitarian architecture for rebuilding countries in the East, highlighting authenticity and maintaining its cultural significance.

Abstract

Mandalay is a multi-ethnic metropolitan city since the 19th century. Mandala symbolism is included in the city structure of Mandalay. In order to compete the Western power structure, Mandala was based in Mandalay’s city planning design which was planned in parallel with Yangon to go against the colonial power. It was quite transparent which ethnic groups were kept there, how they served the king and made cultural exchange among them and formed the national centre of cosmopolitan power and future multi-ethnic capital city. After the king was sent to exile and during the colonial period, these diverse cultural patterns were disturbed. It has undergone many changes since its creation, very slow and inappropriate ad-hoc developments after independence and only promoting the ancient Myanmar cultural heritage in past few decades. This paper highlights the multi-ethnic cultural heritages of Mandalay where Mandala symbolism is included in the the city planning concept. The unique Myanmar feature of Mandalay not only lies in its Buddhist and ritual believes, but also in its multi-ethnic groups’ rituals and meanings because of nearly 170 years of impermanence of different heritage of diverse ethnic groups. There are some parts still visible in daily fabric and activities. The paper concludes that the complexity of urban cultural heritage highlights that simple definition of urban identity does not make sense for Mandalay. Capturing Mandalay’s ethnic complexity is beyond the range of a single short paper. In this paper we will limit our discussion to a focused discussion of Islamic, Thai, Chinese, Christian and Manipuris and Assamese communities. Mandala’s cultural exchange was transparent and there are still the possibilities to be so in 2023 landscape.
