  • Draft Concept Paper: World Heritage Site Manager Workshop, Denmark 21 24 April 2009 Enhancing Our Heritage Toolkit
    Draft Concept Paper: World Heritage Site Manager Workshop, Denmark 21 24 April 2009 Enhancing Our Heritage Toolkit The Heritage Agency of Denmark has generously decided to host a workshop on the Enhancing Our Heritage Toolkit (EoH). Representatives from all the Nordic sites are invited to attend. Nordic World Heritage Foundation will in cooperation with the Danish authorities organize this workshop in April 2009. The workshop is a result of the recommendations from the Periodic Reporting process. 1. Background and objectives The European Periodic Report was submitted to the World Heritage Committee at its 30th meeting in Vilnius 2006. The Nordic Baltic sub-regional report, annexed to the regional report, identifies a number of challenges for the implementation of the World Heritage Convention in the sub-region. Periodic Reporting is widely recognised as an important tool to strengthen and maintain the integrity and credibility of the World Heritage concept. The Periodic Reporting process has so far been successful in developing international cooperation and in providing an account of the status of World Heritage sites. This workshop follows the recommendations from the meeting between the Nordic and Baltic States Parties in 2007 (see Annex I Recommendations from the meeting on Periodic Reporting, Helsinki 3-4 May 2007 no: 6, 7 & 12). The World Heritage Committee will examine the Periodic Reporting follow-up activities for the European region at its 34th session in 2010. The Enhancing Our Heritage Toolkit contains twelve practical tools. Although it has been developed with a focus on natural properties, the initiative also has potential value as a tool to assist site managers of cultural properties.
