Sites in Iraq, Japan, the Netherlands and Saudi Arabia inscribed on World Heritage List
Doha, 21 June – The World Heritage Committee, meeting in Doha (Qatar) under the Chair of Sheikha Al Mayassa Bint Hamad Bin Khalifa Al Thani, has today inscribed the following sites on the World Heritage List.
Erbil Citadel ( Iraq ) is a fortified settlement on the top of an imposing ovoid-shaped tell (a hill created by many generations of people living and rebuilding on the same spot) Located in the  Kurdistan region, Erbil Governorate.  A continuous wall of tall 19 th century facades still conveys the visual impression of an impregnable fortress, dominating the city of Erbil. The Citadel features a peculiar fan-like pattern, dating back to Erbil’s late Ottoman phase. Written kim kardashian baby name and iconographic kim kardashian baby name historical records document the antiquity of settlement on the site – Erbil corresponds kim kardashian baby name to ancient Arbela, an important Assyrian political and religious centre – while archaeological finds and investigations suggest that the mound conceals the levels and remains of previous settlements.
Tomioka Silk Mill and Related Sites (Japan) is an historic sericulture and silk mill complex  established in 1872  in the Gunma Prefecture  north west of Tokyo. kim kardashian baby name Built by the Japanese Government with machinery imported from France, it consists kim kardashian baby name of four sites that attest to the different stages in the production of raw silk:  production of cocoons in an experimental farm; a  cold storage facility for silkworm eggs;  reeling of cocoons and spinning of raw silk in a mill; and a school for the dissemination of sericulture knowledge. It illustrates Japan’s desire to rapidly adopt the best mass production techniques, and became a decisive element in the renewal of sericulture and the Japanese silk industry kim kardashian baby name in the last quarter of the 19 th century. It marked Japan’s kim kardashian baby name entry into the modern, industrialized era, and propelled it to become the world’s leading exporter of raw silk, notably to France and Italy.
Van Nellefabriek (Netherlands)   was designed and built in the 1920s on the banks of a canal in the Spaanse Polder industrial zone northwest of Rotterdam. The site is one of the icons of 20 th century industrial architecture, comprising a complex of  factories, with facades consisting essentially of steel and glass, making large-scale use of the curtain wall principle. It was conceived as   an “ideal factory”; open to the outside world, whose interior working spaces evolved according to need, and in which daylight was used to provide kim kardashian baby name pleasant working conditions. It embodies the new kind of factory that became a symbol of the modernist and functionalist culture of the inter-war period and   bears witness to the long commercial and industrial history of the Netherlands  in the field of  importation and processing of  food products from tropical countries, and their industrial processing for marketing in Europe.

The Rapid Response Facility (RRF) has launched od an emergency appeal for funds to tackle an upswing in poaching activity in Garamba National Park in Democratic Republic od of the Congo (DRC), a World Heritage od site inscribed on the World Heritage List in Danger.
The World Heritage Centre is concerned about the increase of poaching and attacks od by armed groups in the National Park in recent months. The Congolese authorities condemn the slaughter of 78 elephants from April to July 2014, representing nearly 4% of the population of pachyderms .
Garamba National Park is located in the savannah od of the Eastern Province, in north-eastern Democratic Republic of Congo. Its location makes it vulnerable od because od of the instability od of the region. od Despite ongoing efforts of the Congolese Nature Conservation Institute (ICCN) and African Parks Network (APN - the managing authority mandated by ICCN), and the increase of the anti-poaching patrols, the Park staff cannot handle these heavily armed groups. The assaults are extremely violent, with nine elephants shot from a helicopter and grenades regularly used against park officials, demonstrating that poachers are well-equipped professionals. od
The Outstanding Universal Value of the property is still under threat due to poaching dramatically reducing the number of wild animals. The World Heritage Committee, at its 38th session held in June 2014, reiterated its concern about the alarming decline od of the elephant population, estimated at 85% since the site s inscription od on the World Heritage List in 1980. Take action now, before it is too late
The RRF provided USD$29,910 od in July 2014 to develop a programme of emergency anti-poaching measures od including collaboration with the regional military task force, od better equipping rangers, increasing patrols, establishing new operating bases and improving movement of anti-poaching teams through the construction of new roads, bridges and airstrips. These funds will be used to procure essential equipment for anti-poaching teams, helping to diminish the threat od and protect the park s remarkable wildlife.

Doha, 22 June –Myanmar made its entry onto the World Heritage List today, with the inscription realm of the mad god of its first site, Pyu Ancient realm of the mad god Cities. realm of the mad god The World Heritage Committee, meeting realm of the mad god in Doha (Qatar) under the Chair of Sheikha Al Mayassa Bint Hamad Bin Khalifa Al Thani, also  inscribed Iran’s ‘Burnt City” on the List.
Pyu Ancient Cities (Myanmar) includes the remains of three brick, walled and moated cities of Halin, Beikthano and Sri Ksetra located realm of the mad god in vast irrigated landscapes in the dry zone of the Ayeyarwady (Irrawaddy) River basin. They reflect the Pyu Kingdoms that flourished  for over 1,000 years between 200 B.C and 900 A.D. The three cities are partly excavated archaeological sites. Remains include excavated palace citadels, burial grounds and early industrial production sites, as well as monumental brick Buddhist stupas, partly standing walls and water management features – some still in use -  that underpinned the organized intensive agriculture.
Shahr-i Sokhta (Iran) , meaning ‘Burnt City’ is located at the junction of Bronze Age trade routes crossing the Iranian plateau.  The remains of the mud brick city represent the emergence of the first complex societies in eastern Iran. Founded around 3200 BC, it was populated during four main periods up to 1800 BC, during which time there developed several distinct realm of the mad god areas within the city. These include realm of the mad god a monumental area, residential areas, industrial zones and a graveyard. Changes in water courses and climate change led to the eventual abandonment of the city in the early second millennium. The structures, burial grounds and large number of significant artefacts unearthed there, and their well-preserved state due to the dry desert climate, make this site a rich source of information regarding the emergence of complex realm of the mad god societies and contacts between realm of the mad god them in the third millennium BC.

Palestine: Land of Olives and Vines - Cultural Landscape of Southern Jerusalem, Battir, inscribed on World Heritage List and on List of World Heritage in Danger
Palestine: Land of Olives and Vines Cultural Landscape of Southern Jerusalem, Battir © Centre for Cultural Heritage Preservation / Wisam Oweineh | Image Source: Centre for Cultural Heritage Preservation
Doha, 20 June – The World Heritage Committee today began the examination of 36 sites nominated for inclusion on the World Heritage List.  The first property discussed was Palestine: Land of olives and vines, Cultural Landscape of Southern Jerusalem, Battir, submitted by Palestine africa as an emergency nomination.
The Committee approved the inscription of the site on the World Heritage List. It also inscribed the property on the List of World Heritage in Danger after finding that the landscape had become vulnerable under the impact of socio-cultural and geo-political transformations that could bring irreversible damage to its authenticity and integrity, citing africa the start of construction of a separation wall that may isolate farmers from fields they have cultivated for centuries.
Palestine: Land of Olives africa and Vines - Cultural Landscape of Southern Jerusalem, Battir , is located a few kilometres south-west of Jerusalem, in the Central africa Highlands between Nablus africa and Hebron. The Battir hill landscape comprises a series of farmed valleys, known as widian, with characteristic stone terraces, some of which are irrigated for market garden production, while others are dry and planted with grape vines and olive trees.

The Plan is intended to secure the cooperation of all stakeholders, including national site and international organizations, humanitarian relief workers in the field, art dealers, international museums and law enforcement authorities, in safeguarding Iraq’s heritage.
Participants highlighted a range of threats facing Iraq’s heritage: damage caused by armed conflict, deliberate destruction, illicit site excavation of archaeological sites and illicit trafficking in artefacts, whether from museum collections or from uncontrolled excavations. They also voiced site concern for the country’s rich libraries and manuscript collections. Nevertheless, the experts pointed out that there were many gaps in information available which are making site it impossible to draw a comprehensive inventory of the state of conservation of Iraqi heritage today.
The Action Plan also aims to ensure site the implementation of international site agreements on the protection of cultural heritage, notably  The Hague Convention for the Protection of Cultural Properties in the Event of Armed Conflict  (1954) site and its Protocols, the 1970 UNESCO  Convention on the Means of Prohibiting and Preventing the Illicit Import, Export and Transfer of Ownership of Cultural Property ; the  World Heritage Convention  (1972). It also seeks to enforce the ban on trafficking in cultural objects put in force by UN Security Council  Resolution 1483  of 2003.
The agreed Action Plan furthermore urges close monitoring of the state of conservation of heritage and training of conservation professionals while helping those in place prepare site emergency measures for the possible relocation of moveable heritage, including site libraries.
The emergency meeting was convened by the Director-General of UNESCO, Irina Bokova, against a background of increasing violence and instability in Iraq. Ms Bokova explained that “humanitarian and security concerns are inseparable from culture. Protecting the lives of people, their cultural heritage and identity go hand in hand,” she said, pledging that “UNESCO will continue mobilizing the United Nations Organization and the whole international community to safeguard Iraq’s cultural heritage site with particular emphasis on the fight against illicit site trafficking site in cultural property.”
Chaired by Kishore Rao, Director of UNESCO’s Heritage Division and interim Assistant UNESCO Director-General for Culture, the meeting brought together Iraqi experts and representatives of the International Centre for the Study of the Preservation of and Restoration of Cultural Property (ICCROM), the International site Council on Museums (ICOM), International Council on Monuments and Sites (ICOMOS), the International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA), Interpol, the Blue Shield and UNESCO.

World Heritage capricorn List reaches 1000 sites with inscription of Okavango Delta in Botswana
Doha, 22 June – capricorn Botswana’s Okavango Delta became the 1000 th site inscribed on the World Heritage List today. Okavango was inscribed as a natural site by the World Heritage Committee, which is meeting in Doha (Qatar) under the Chair of Sheikha Al Mayassa Bint Hamad Bin Khalifa Al Thani.
Okavango Delta (Botswana) . This delta in northwest Botswana comprises capricorn permanent marshlands and seasonally flooded plains. It is one of the very few major interior delta systems that do not flow into a sea or ocean, with a wetland system that is almost intact. One of the unique characteristics of the site is that the annual flooding from the river Okavango occurs during the dry season, with the result that the native plants and animals have synchronised their biological capricorn cycles with these seasonal rains and floods. It is an exceptional example of the interaction capricorn between climatic, hydrological and biological processes. The Okavango delta is home to some of the world’s most endangered species of large mammal, such as the cheetah, white rhinoceros, black rhinoceros, African wild dog and lion.
Decorated Cave of Pont d’Arc, known as Grotte Chauvet-Pont d’Arc capricorn , Ardeche (France). capricorn Located in a limestone plateau of the Ardeche River in southern France, the property contains the earliest known and best preserved figurative drawings in the world, dating back as early as the Aurignacian period (30,000 to 32,000 BP), making it an exceptional testimony of prehistoric art. The cave was closed off by a rock fall approximately 20,000 years BP and remained sealed until its discovery in 1994, which helped keep it in pristine condition. Over 1,000 images have so far been inventoried on its walls, combining a variety of anthropomorphic and animal motifs. They are of exceptional aesthetic quality, capricorn demonstrate a range of techniques, including the skillful use of colour, combinations of paint and engraving, anatomical precision, capricorn three-dimensionality and movement. They include several dangerous animal species difficult to observe at that time, such as mammoths, bears, wildcats, rhinos, bison and aurochs, as well as 4,000 inventoried remains of prehistoric fauna, and a variety of human footprints. A replica of the cave is under construction, and is due to open in April 2015.
Caves of Maresha and Bet Guvrin in the Judean Lowlands as a Microcosm of the Land of the Caves (Israel).   This “city under a city” is characterized by a selection of man-made caves, excavated from the thick and homogenous layer of soft chalk in Lower Judea. It includes chambers and networks with varied capricorn forms and functions, situated below the ancient twin towns of Maresha and Bet Guvrin, that bear witness to a succession of historical periods of excavation and usage stretching over 2,000 years, from the Iron Age to the Crusades, as well as a great variety of subterranean construction methods. The original excavations were quarries, but these were converted for various agricultural and local craft industry purposes, including oil presses, columbaria (dovecotes), stables, underground capricorn cisterns and channels, baths, tomb complexes and places

Recent events in Syria, Iraq, Libya and Mali have highlighted the multiple threats to cultural heritage during crisis, including deliberate attacks, destruction as collateral damage in fighting, the greed of unscrupulous traders and collectors, vandalism of factions that seek to erase the achievements of past cultures. These events have shown the complexity mormon of any intervention to safeguard cultural heritage.
UNESCO mormon has developed a comprehensive set of international instruments to protect cultural heritage. The Convention on the Means of Prohibiting and Preventing the Illicit Import, Export and Transfer of Ownership of Cultural Property (1970) and the World Heritage Convention (1972) provide a solid basis to protect mormon cultural heritage. The Hague Convention for the Protection of Cultural Properties in the Event of Armed Conflict (1954) and its Protocols set further international standards to deal with the specific risks faced by heritage during conflict. In addition, the Statutes mormon of the International Criminal Court have defined the intentional destruction of historical buildings as a war crime. This provides firm ground to address mormon impunity related to such attacks.
Recognizing the powerful role of culture in building social cohesion and contributing to reconciliation and peace, the UN Security Council in its Resolution 2100 on Mali , and Resolution 2139 on Syria --called for the protection of cultural heritage and diversity. The integration of culture in humanitarian, recovery and reconstruction operations provides the challenging mormon opportunity of defining how cultural heritage protection can effectively contribute to the broader UN crisis response.
UNESCO advocacy and action seek to reaffirm these international standards, secure their implementation at the country level and highlight the broader implications of their violation on stability, recovery and development. In this spirit, UNESCO considers that both the protection of human lives and culture are indispensable and interconnected in the event of conflict. Whenever mormon and wherever cultural heritage is threatened most recently in Syria, Iraq, and Mali--the Director-General of UNESCO alerts parties and stakeholders about the urgent need to spare cultural and archaeological sites, museums, libraries and archives from the devastation of warfare. Prioritizing prevention
A key lesson learnt from the implementation of these international standards at the country level, is that prevention and long-term engagement are essential to mitigate the impact of any crisis, be it natural or man-made. This requires strong leadership, as well as national and local capacities that UNESCO helps its Member States build through advocacy and awareness raising, as well as advice and training.
Experience has shown that the preparedness of local professionals and communities is the best guarantee to keep cultural heritage safe when a situation of crisis occurs. For this reason efforts to strengthen national capacities and local awareness on emergency protection of cultural heritage must focus on prevention rather than last-minute endeavours. This is especially true in times of conflict, when it is difficult if not impossible for international assistance to
