World Heritage management

The World Heritage Resource Manual 'Managing Cultural World Heritage' states 'The World Heritage system requires States Parties to engage in the management of cultural properties in two different and significant stages which form a continuum.

1) A State Party must first demonstrate, as part of the inscription process, how it will manage the Outstanding Universal Value of the property by responding to issues raised in the nomination format and by demonstrating the existence of a management plan, or other management system, that is adequate for protecting the property.

2) After inscription, a State Party must respect its commitment to safeguarding the Outstanding Universal Value of the property through effective long-term management, and through a series of World Heritage procedures which allow this protection to be verified.
