Summary

A validated decision-making methodology (DMT) for post-conflict revitalization of UNESCO World Heritage Sites, demonstrated through the rehabilitation of Aleppo's historic souk, offers a replicable framework to guide conservation efforts. The approach integrates 3D scanning and damage assessment data to inform cost-effective, contextually appropriate interventions that restore functionality while preserving cultural integrity. This DMT bridges scientific evidence with practical implementation, providing actionable tools for stakeholders in conflict-affected heritage conservation.
