Preservation and Promotion of the Bamiyan Valley through Culture-Oriented Sustainable Development

N° du projet 534AFG4006

The aim of this project is to enhance the capacity of the Government to protect and manage the archaeological remains and cultural landscape of the Bamiyan Valley through an integrated approach that combines direct conservation actions along the main Buddha Cliff with the preservation and valorization of their context. The Afghan authorities will be provided with operational connections between the WH property and its cultural environment. Local communities will also benefit from the creation of cultural public spaces and services that will favor a more inclusive approach to cultural sites, will create immediate employment opportunities, and contribute to developing sustainable tourism.
