Of-course, you’ve recognized these historical sites. They are protected and maintained by the International World Heritage Program which is administered by the UNESCO World Heritage Committee
❐ A White House conference in 1965 called for a " World Heritage Trust" to preserve " the world's superb natural and scenic areas and historic sites for the present
and the future of the entire world citizenry ." A single text was agreed on by all parties, and the " Convention Concerning the Protection of the World Cultural and Natural
Heritage was adopted by the General Conference of UNESCO on 16 November 1972.
The World Heritage Sites are places that are significant culturally and naturally; they vary in type but include forests, lakes, monuments, buildings and cities. World Heritage Sites can also be a combination of both cultural and natural areas. Today the World Heritage Committee is the main group responsible for establishing which sites will be listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Committee meets once a year and consists of representatives from 21 State Parties that are elected for six year terms by the World Heritage Center’s General Assembly.
