GLOBAL RESPONSE
Built Heritage
More than stones and buildings, built heritage is a precious link with history and a vital component of our identity as peoples. Protected by our related Conventions, we're working with our partners to monitor and assess the state of heritage under threat across the globe.
Cultural Expression
Cultural heritage also includes intangible forms such as performance, knowledge and cultural traditions, which must be safeguarded alongside built heritage. It's the diversity of cultural expressions that form the basis of the rich fabric of human civilisation.
Heritage Collections and Illicit Trafficking
Heritage Collections in museums and related institutions offer us a source of beauty, inspiration to critical thinking and bridge cultures and peoples together. Promoting them for intercultural dialogue and protecting them from illicit trafficking and unlawful activities are our shared duty.
