Principles for DRR for cultural heritage/1
1.The key is advance planning and preparation;
2.Advance planning should include concern for the whole
property, its buildings, structures, and their associated contents
and landscapes;
3.Advance planning should integrate relevant heritage
considerations within a property’s overall disaster prevention
strategy;
4.Preparedness requirements should be met in heritage
buildings by means which will have least impact on heritage
values;
5.Heritage properties, their significant attributes and the
disaster response history of the property should be clearly
documented as a basis for appropriate disaster planning,
response and recovery;
Principles for DRR for cultural heritage/2
6.Maintenance programmes for historic properties should
integrate a cultural heritage-at-risk perspective;
7.Property occupants and users should be directly involved in
development of emergency-response plans;
8.Securing heritage features should be a high priority during
emergencies;
9.Following a disaster, every effort should be made to ensure
the retention and repair of heritage structures or features that
have suffered damage or loss;
10.Conservation principles should be integrated where
appropriate in all phases of disaster planning, response and
recovery.
Heritage contributes to DR reduction
Before and during a disaster
• As a physical defense against hazards (tangible);
• As a catalyzer of disaster resilient communities (intangible);
After a disaster
• Providing shelter, goods and services;
• As an economic asset for recovery;
• Providing psychological support, strengthening identity,
social cohesion;
• Facilitating decision making/communication;
• As an educational tool.
Petra Siq Stability project
Sustainable Monitoring Techniques for Assessing Instability of Slopes in the
Siq of Petra, Jordan (April 2012 – October 2014)
Project goals
Identify potential detectable unstable areas in the Siq by means of
field engineering geological techniques

Establishment of long-term monitoring methods of the rock-block
deformation (from remote to field)

Develop guidelines for sustainable landslide mitigation and
management

Develop a GIS common platform for storing, analysis and
management of data, as well as a 3D computerized model of the Siq and
other selected structures, and an extensive and interactive virtual tour
based on panorama photographs and lased scanned monuments

Build capacity of the DoA and PDTRA on the technicality of the
project

PETRA SIQ STABILITY PROJECT
Petra
archaeological area
Wadi Musa
The Siq is a 1.2km deep passage, with a E-W orientation and meandering course. The Siq
connects the town area of Wadi Musa with the monumental area of Petra and constitutes the
main path for tourists to access the archaeological area.

Petra Risk Mapping project
Results achieved
Field mapping of 1993 PAP governmental
boundaries. Verification by a technical committee and
transmission of Park coordinates to WHC for approval
at the 2013 WH Committee.

Delineation of guidelines, scenarios and
recommendations of use for a buffer zone of the PAP
for the area between the villages of Um Sayhun and
Beidha. Possibility of creating a buffer–zoning system
and limited boundary adjustments identified as the
best scenario.

Delineation of a Risk Management Methodology
to identify and assess risks within the PAP and its
application to a PAP pilot area. Holistic risk
management methodology identified as the most
appropriate strategy for mitigation of risks and
protection of values of the property.

Amman DRR awareness project
Introducing concepts on disaster risk management in schools
Results achieved
•
Two guidebooks produced – endorsed by the
Ministry of Education- for students (1-4th grade/ 510th grade) on earthquakes, flood preparedness
and safe behavior.
•
48 teachers trained on disaster risk
reduction, use of new guidebook at their schools
and on how to set up contingency plans.
•
Four Public Service Announcements (PSAs)
in a cartoon format produced and launched. The
PSAs explain in an easy and family friendly way
how to be prepared for a natural disaster at home
and at schools and what the basic evacuation
procedures are. These cartoons were shown on
Jordan TV.
•
Evacuation drills conducted at the selected
schools by the Civil Defense team.
•
Disaster Risk Reduction bags for each of the
piloted schools distributed by Jordan Red Crescent.
