Prompted by an initiative of the community that nowadays occupies the former Leprosy Asylum near Westfort (founded in 1897-98 and partly designed by WIERDA and VAN RIJSSE of ZAR-DPW) this settlement was identified as a ‘Shared Heritage’ site in 2014. The 2015 mission – executed by prof Marieke Kuipers (RCE/TUD), Jean-Paul Corten (RCE) and Job Roos (co-director of Braaksma-Roos architects/TUD) – aimed at both the training of young professionals and students in methodologies of ‘mapping’ potential heritage values of the Westfort colony and bringing stakeholders together.
