Programmes
To achieve the HF’s vision, we have developed five programmes aimed at raising funds to protect heritage at risk. These funds enable us to provide the necessary infrastructure, expertise and services to manage threatened movable and immovable heritage, to conduct heritage research and to promote the significance of heritage resources.
HERITAGE FOUNDATION OPERATIONAL PROGRAMME
The Heritage Foundation operational programme ensures that the public services offered by the Foundation as well as the conservation and management of the heritage resources in our care can be maintained.
