Important announcement

Dear visitor,

Please note that this OpenCourseWare platform will be replaced at the end of 2026 by a new platform (under the same url ocw.tudelft.nl).

Courses and their contents that are currently available the platform will partly be migrated. URL’s for this content will change and content might be unavailable for some time. In addition, some courses will not be available anymore.

If you are linking to specific courses on this platform (for instance for your students), please take timely measures to avoid problems with access. Possible actions are:

  • Download the materials to your local platform (laptop, server)
  • For educators only (including TU Delft lecturers): Contact us at ocw@tudelft.nl and inform us what course you are using in what context (institute, program, period of use, number of students). We will research (in collaboration with the authors of the course) and decide if we will migrate the course, and if yes, can supply you with a new url.

Thank you.

5.3.1. Introduction to the HUL approach

Course subject(s) 5. Unchartered waters: How to address these challenges?

Let’s take a closer look at the HUL approach, adopted by UNESCO to integrate heritage and development in Historic Urban Landscapes.

You have already met Jyoti Hosagrahar, Deputy Director for the World Heritage Centre at UNESCO, as she talked about the threat of climate change to heritage sites earlier in the course. She is also an expert in the HUL approach: in the clip below she explains why it covers so many different levels and factors, and why those are all relevant to preserving heritage.

What is UNESCO's HUL approach?
