IHBC Context’s Hong Kong articles now on Conservation Wiki: and let us know if we can add yours!

The IHBC’s ongoing programme to extend awareness of our valued membership journal, Context, through our Conservation Wiki public service, is continuing with the posting of recent articles on Hong Kong’s Renaissance Architecture and its Shophouses.

IHBC Director Seán O’Reilly said: ‘The IHBC is very focused on extending awareness of our work, and many will already know of our free trial membership for members of the Chartered Institute for Archaeology (CIfA).  Populating our Conservation Wiki with content from Context also adds substantially to our reach and profile in another critical constituency: the construction and development sector.’

‘So this week our Conservation Wiki features the recently added articles by Ho-Yin Lee and Lynne D Distefano on two distinct aspects of Hong Kong architecture –  its renaissance history and its ‘shophouses’.  Carrying our Context content on our Conservation Wiki platform ensures a truly global reach for the IHBC’s conservation work’.

‘And if you have already articles in Context with content that would work on Wiki, and would like us to extend their reach through our Conservation Wiki, just let me know at: director@ihbc.org.uk’.

‘And don’t forget too that anyone can add their own specialist conservation knowledge and experience to IHBC’s Conservation Wiki: it is an open and public service, so simply log in and add your information’!
