ICOMOS has issued a statement on 8^th June 2021 in light of the conflict in Israel and Occupied Palestinian Territory.

Following the successful work done in the first two phases of Connecting Practice, ICOMOS and IUCN are pleased to share the results of the third Phase of the Connecting Practice project.

If you believe that there is no future without culture and that the cultural ecosystems should be integrated in both short-term recovery and long-term development strategies, support the #Culture2030goal campaign. With the launch today of its strategy document, the group (of which ICOMOS is a member) takes this opportunity to extend an invitation to interested stakeholders to join the campaign and support its actions.

After 11 years working at ICOMOS International Secretariat as head of the Documentation Centre, Lucile Smirnov has said goodbye to ICOMOS to take up a new position in another institution.

This year, the ICOMOS Advisory Committee will organise its Scientific Symposium online on 9 and 10 November 2021 on the theme: Living Heritage and Climate Change.

Living heritage provides people with their sense of identity and is continuously regenerating in response to their environment. But we live in a time of rapid environmental change accelerated by the current climate crisis. Our responses to this crisis have the potential to strengthen our living heritage or destroy it.

ICOMOS is proud to share the French translation of the leading publication on climate change and heritage: « L’Avenir de notre Passé : Engager le patrimoine culturel dans l'action pour le climat » ("Future of our Pasts”).
