Museums’ Problems and Management for Tourism: A Case Study of District Peshawar
Abstract
The study is aimed to identify some basic problems of museums and community in Peshawar District and their management to make the museum a visitors’ friendly destination. Museums and community are interdependent to flourish. The development of a museum is subject to the interest of the people and community engagement. Similarly, Museums also play a vital role in the development of a society in terms of education, preservation of the cultural assets and creation of sense of ownerships and identity. The connection between Museums and community can be strengthened when museums are properly managed to satisfy the needs and demands of the community and the community in return owns its cultural heritage. The study is carried out through field surveys and personal observations of the authors. For proper management of highlighted problems already standardised remedial case studies have been considered. The study found a number of problems and concluded with their proper management for profitable public outreach and tourism development.
