Anthologie pour un combat y un capítulo de su obra de 2011 La Terre qui meurt, donde analiza los conceptos de "monumento" y "monumento histórico" y su evolución. Con ello, Choay hace un llamamiento contra la estandarización global y el uso genérico del término "patrimonio", al tiempo que subraya la importancia de la formación de arquitectos y urbanistas.

In 2021, ICCROM embarked on a journey to understand the needs, challenges, and goals of heritage professionals whose work relates to sustaining digital heritage. The aim of this inquiry is to develop a proposal for a programme—tentatively called Sustaining Digital Heritage—that could help fill gaps in existing opportunities for capacity development offered on this topic. In order to learn directly from practitioners, interviews were conducted with over 30 heritage professionals from across the globe. This report shares the findings of these discussions and identifies professional development opportunities that could help practitioners develop skills and capacities to sustain digital heritage.

Latin America and the Caribbean are home to a vibrant heritage that includes World Heritage sites, diverse and prominent contemporary cultural expressions, ancient cultures and subcultures, strong links to the environment, and rich indigenous knowledge reserves. ICCROM’s regional programme for Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) aims to promote the integrated and sustainable management of this heritage, paying particular attention to major region-specific issues - one of which is contemporary heritage. This survey was created to assess the needs and opportunities concerning the conservation and management of contemporary art collections in the LAC region. Its results will be used to underpin the development of effective and integrated capacity-building initiatives on this topic at the regional level.
