While HMPs are fundamental to the shaping of historic settlements by suggesting methods of management and conservation of historic fabric, this research group strongly believes that the success of such approaches are only limited if not fully integrated with addressing developmental needs and aspirations of future generations.

Local tourism and appreciation

The term technology, here, is used in the broadest sense, ranging from the reduction of over-reliance on technology to the embracing of VRSKLVWLFDWHG VFLHQWLÂżF DQG WHFKQRORJLFDO SURFHVVHV and methods. Such technology will focus on developing intelligent, alternative ways of food production, small-scale and low-tech cropping, to the harnessing of solar energy for meeting the energy needs of the community. Alternative ways of achieving comfort within dwellings by moving away from heavy reliance on air conditioning is to be implemented in the eco-housing development. ‡ Training: A parallel concentration on education DQG WUDLQLQJ LQ WKH ÂżHOGV RI WRXULVP DJULFXOWXUH DQG energy production is to be established, possibly in FRQMXQFWLRQ ZLWK WKH ORFDO 1L]ZĆ— 8QLYHUVLW\ DQG other governmental (e.g., the Public Authority for Craft Industries, PACI) and non-governmental (e.g., Omani Association for the Arts, Historical Association, Oman Photographic Society, etc.)

The ‘holiday homes’ provide excellent views east across the oasis to the Al Hajar Mountains.

The ‘eco-houses’ will EH GHVLJQHG DQG EXLOW WR VWDWH RI WKH DUW HFRORJLFDO NQRZOHGJH and technology, adhering to their heritage context.

CRAFTS PRODUCTION AND RETAIL The settlement of al-Yemen offers an opportunity for ORFDO FUDIWVPHQ DQG DUWLVDQV WR VKRZFDVH DQG VHOO WKHLU ZRUNV to visitors. In order to provide not only shop-front space but also production space on site it was decided to allocate the entirety of Zone N and part of Zone F to this purpose, integrating the north avenue into an ambulatory route of scenic and commercial value. This is to be extended south along streets between zones E, H and L to provide enhanced commercial capacity. The potential for re-embedding crafts traditions within Omani society and re-utilisation of products has great potential. The Public Authority for Crafts Industries (PACI) is mandated to enable the proliferation of traditional crafts. Imaginative employment of the crafts to suit contemporary

needs and demands would extend its vitality. To this end, associated training and educational facilities are being proposed (part of Zone F, cf. below).

ALTERNATIVE ENERGY AND AGRICULTURAL TECHNOLOGY As indicated earlier, Omani vernacular settlements have enormous potential for exploring alternative methods of HQHUJ\ JHQHUDWLRQ DQG GHYHORSLQJ WHFKQLTXHV IRU HQKDQFLQJ and diversifying agricultural production. The Master Plan proposes that areas be assigned for such production, research and training activities.

the best way to preserve it from future deterioration is to use it. Its continued utilization, even if for a new purpose, ZLOO SRVH D QHHG IRU UHJXODU XSNHHS ZKLFK VKRXOG LQ WXUQ discourage neglect.
