Revision of Uganda’s Tentative List

A national meeting is convened to discuss a national mechanism for revising the country’s Tentative List, and to begin selecting possible cultural and natural sites for future nomination to the World Heritage List.

Participants will include national and regional authorities responsible for the protection of Uganda’s heritage, as well as university and independent researchers. Two regional resource persons, who are members of ICOMOS and IUCN, will also attend the meeting to share their knowledge on the implementation of the World Heritage Convention and the experience of other countries with regard to revised Tentative Lists.

Since the inscription of the World Heritage Convention of the third Ugandan site on the World Heritage List in 2001, there has been no overall consideration, at the national level, of any other sites of outstanding universal value that could be nominated to the World Heritage List.
