She was also involved in international projects, such the Bagan Workshop in 2018, where she participated in the documentation of several Buddhist temples in Bagan, Myanmar, and a project with the Department of Culture and Tourism in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates from 2019-2020 to create a set of policies and standards for heritage conservation with case study examples.
