ICOMOS - MONDIACULT 2022 Culture Forum | Looking Forward: The Future of Heritage Policy and the SDGs
Join the ICOMOS SDGs Working Group, Emerging Professionals Working Group, ICOMOS Mexico and the Ministry of Culture of Mexico at the 2nd part of the ICOMOS- Mondiacult 2022 Culture Forum.
As part of global discussions on cultural policies and sustainable development that are happening in the lead up to the UNESCO World Conference on Cultural Policies and Sustainable Development in September 2022, ICOMOS is holding a three-part Culture Forum which is discussing the role of culture and heritage in Sustainable Development.
A strong ICOMOS delegation has contributed to the World Urban Forum of UN-Habitat in Katowice, on 26-30 June 2022, on the theme "Transforming our Cities for a Better Urban Future".
The World Urban Forum (WUF) is the premier global conference on sustainable urbanisation, established in 2001 by the United Nations to examine one of the most pressing issues facing the world today: rapid urbanisation and its impact on communities, cities, economies, climate change and policies. The first WUF was held in Nairobi, Kenya in 2002 and has been held around the world ever since.
Here are the latest initiatives for the month of June that ICOMOS Sustainable Development Goals Working Group is doing, including different topics such as world heritage and other matters on cultural policies.
ICOMOS Working Groups have contributed to two recent reports on the integration of cultural heritage within sustainable development:
