About The Author
UNESCO
The World Heritage List includes sites forming part of the cultural and natural heritage which the World Heritage Committee considers as having outstanding universal value. In 1972 UNESCO (the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation) adopted the Convention concerning the Protection of the World’s Cultural and Natural Heritage. Since then 936 sites have been inscribed onto the List, 725 of which are cultural, 183 natural and 28 mixed properties, in 153 countries.
