Getty will hold 'Old Cities, New Challenges 2020 (OCNC20)', the second in our series of courses for urban conservation in Southeast Asia presented in collaboration with Think City.

The course's primary objective is to improve urban conservation practices in Southeast Asian cities by providing participants with a fuller understanding of conservation methodologies and effective, practical tools and techniques for the conservation of historic places in urban contexts.
