Practical Conservation Efforts & Repatriation Campaigns
We engage in hands-on preservation activities to protect and maintain cultural artifacts and sites. This includes supporting restoration projects and promoting best practices in heritage conservation. We also actively campaign for the return of lost or displaced cultural properties to their countries of origin. We aspire to work with international institutions and governments to facilitate the repatriation of important cultural artifacts. Our main goal is to spread knowledge about the importance of cultural heritage preservation. We strive to inspire more people to take an interest in and actively participate in the protection of our shared cultural treasures.

2024 Project
In the summer of 2024, the Cultural Heritage Preservation Practice Association has specially signed an MOU with Woljeongsa, a thousand-year-old Korean temple, to invite Woodenfish from the United States for an exchange program.
Students will participate in this program as official members of the Cultural Heritage Preservation Practice Association, joining selected American university students from Woodenfish. They will gain an understanding of Buddhism as practiced in Korea, experience daily life in a Korean temple, learn Buddhist theory, and engage in academic discussions with American university professors. Through these activities, they will exchange diverse opinions on Buddhism and Asian culture.
