Strengthening preparedness and response to emergencies (conflicts and disasters) affecting culture

N° du projet 2210531021

In the context of the growing number of conflicts and disasters affecting culture, the present workplan contributes to the protection of culture, in its diversity, in emergencies through better preparedness and response. Member States, including in Africa and SIDS, will be better equipped in implementing UNESCO's standard-setting instruments and strategies in relation to emergency situations as well as relevant UN/international policies and processes. To this end, capacities will be strengthened and technical assistance provided, and partnerships with key actors will be pursued and strengthened with the view to integrate culture within humanitarian and security strategies as well as peace-keeping/building processes.
