World Heritage properties grapple with multifaceted conservation and management challenges, with a large percentage of them facing issues related to development. The World Heritage Committee has increasingly requested State Parties to the World Heritage Convention to undertake Impact Assessments before deciding to proceed with the implementation, which is essential to both prevent damage to World Heritage and identify sustainable options. The Guidance and Toolkit for Impact Assessments in a World Heritage Context (the IA Guidance) is the go-to reference that serve to better assist State Parties in the understanding of what these assessments entail and to provide a roadmap for their implementation.
However, based on the 1st HeritAP Chat on Impact of Ground Transportation Infrastructure at World Heritage Sites, professionals raised the issue that sometimes it would be too late for the impact assessments and mitigation measures when the project is discovered. Meanwhile, the IA Guidance encourages the State Parties to include impact assessments into their own management system of heritage.
Considering the above-mentioned requirement, in the 3rd HeritAP Chat, we will discuss the Early Intervention of Impact Assessments. Three cases will be introduced during the HeritAP Chat from China, Germany, and Canada. The cases will present the possible early intervention from different departments and impact assessments of cultural heritage properties. Chat will focus on how to embed the impact assessments into the management system, the practice of screening and scoping process etc.
