Cooperating to Create a Greater Impact - The Case Study of ‘DEJIMA Transcending Time Itself’
Abstract
“Cooperating to create a greater impact" was a session during the ICOM General Conference in Kyoto, Japan. It was organized by ICOM NL, ICOM JP, DEMHIST, EXARC and the Japan Museum Sieboldhuis. The session took place on September 4, 2019 at Kyoto International Conference Centre. The session focused on themes of collaboration, cooperation, joint ownership and the possibilities in continued contacts. During this conference I presented a case study on the history of the Dejima restoration project and its current utilization strategy under the title "Dejima Transcending Time Itself ". In this article I will show the significance of Dejima and how it contributes to improvements in the recognition of National historic sites and facilities.
