DARE - Because Entrepreneurs Do

Indian history and different cultural eras of the country provide a plethora of architectural variety in the form of monuments and buildings.

These might include temples, mosques, tombs, churches, cemeteries, forts, palaces, step-wells, rock-cut caves, and secular architecture as well as ancient mounds and sites which represent the remains of ancient habitation.

Conservation and preservation of these monuments remain in the hands of Archaeological Survey of India (ASI), some NGOs like he Indian National Trust for Art and Cultural Heritage (INTACH) involving specialists and experts that might include architectures and consultants.

There are opportunity areas in salvaging, transplantation, reconstruction and restoration of monuments; material used in conservation ranging from brick, lime to wood and metals; labor and masonry work-force; scaffolding, water-proofing and foundation laying materials, architectural consultancy; and monitoring services.

Are you interested in conserving the heritage of India?
