This project brings together partners on Bonaire and in the Netherlands who share the same goals: using (previously unapplied) digital fieldwork technologies to inventory, preserve, and make endangered heritage accessible to the local and international community, involving the local community in heritage documentation and monitoring, and determining ethical considerations for the use of these technologies in cultural heritage protection. The emphasis is on approaches that benefit the local community and the protection and management of Bonaire's rich heritage. The project involves a case study on Bonaire (Fontein).
