Climate and World Heritage Sites
UNESCO recognizes the genuine concern surrounding the impact of climate change on both natural and cultural heritage sites.  To address these concerns, UNESCO's World Heritage Centre has established a broad working group of experts to: a) review the nature and scale of the risks posed to World Heritage properties arising specifically from climate change; and b) jointly develop a strategy to assist States Parties to implement appropriate management responses.
