Understanding how our community views cultural heritage is essential. It helps us shape discussions and engage everyone on its importance.

This literature review explores:  

  • what heritage means to people 

  • how interest in heritage develops 

  • attitudes towards preserving heritage 

  • expectations of government. 

 We also consider how to communicate about heritage and areas for future research.
