Heritage on the horizon

Hello:
You are invited to participate in a survey about Built Heritage. It will take approximately 10 minutes to complete the questionnaire.

First, what is Built Heritage? In short “Built heritage represents the historical layers of our built environment in places made of brick, plaster, wood, metal and stone. Built heritage includes cathedrals and cemeteries, factories and fences, houses and hotels.” Furthermore, "Built heritage provides a legacy of physical artifacts and intangible attributes of a group or society that are maintained in the present and bestowed for the benefit of future generations.” The goal of this survey is to get a snapshot of what, if any, built heritage is acknowledged, recognized, valued by a variety of age groups.

The results will inform a short “spark” - 7 min presentation at the 2015 National Trust for Canada Conference, Saturday October 24th, 1:30-3:30 Session 8C. At the end of this survey you can read the abstract.
