Cultural Heritage Management Plan for the Diamer-Bhasha Dam Project. Urgent tasks

Abstract

The note presented here, unpublished, and recently found during a reconnaissance of the materials preserved in Harald Hauptmann’s personal archives, presents a brief synopsis of the work conducted by the Pak-German mission in Gilgit-Baltistan and directed until 2013 by the author.  The most important part of this note, which was drafted in 2015, however, lies in the ideal program that the author has in fact left in it for future reference for colleagues who would deal, after him, with this important region of Pakistan and its endangered cultural heritage.
