Review

'Labadi's book is an important contribution for practitioners and policy makers alike to ensure that investment in heritage is sustainably managed and critically evaluated, thereby reaffirming the need to address, poverty, gender and environment.' Built Heritage'Labadi's book is a powerful call for collaborative, intersectional approaches to development that would benefit scholars, UN staff, political officials, nonprofit professionals, and others working in a wide array of development fields.' Museum Anthropology'comprehensive and excellent look at recontextualising and rethinking heritage and sustainable development's interconnected role as the world steps forward into a new tomorrow.'EXARC Journal'The book could be seen as slightly depressing for those who champion the use of cultural heritage for sustainable development, detailing as it does the impacts of short-sighting project planning, limited budgets, lack of global recognition, and legacies of colonial approaches. However, the book also demonstrates a clear way forward: challenging ourselves to critically examine real-world performance of projects, shine a light on failures and successes, and draw lessons from them of how to do better. The book opens with a discussion of how the potential of cultural heritage in development is under-recognized. But that recognition must be earned through demonstrating that the sector can consistently deliver effective projects that speak to real-world challenges and provide robust evidence of that, as this book does.'Public Archaeology'an excellent review of international sustainable development initiatives that aim to leverage heritage....This is critical reading for students, scholars, and practitioners.' Choice'This book is essential reading for academics interested in the role of heritage for sustainable development and decolonization, as well as for those interested in implementing the SDGs in policy and practice.'Archaeological Journal
