HERITAGE AND LANDSCAPE AS HUMAN VALUES: ICOMOS GENERAL ASSEMBLY 2014

摘要

Since 1976 Australia ICOMOS has been committed to improving conservation philosophy and practice for culturally significant places. With over 600 members it's one of the largest national committees of the Paris based NGO which acts as a cultural heritage adviser to UNESCO. Australia ICOMOS members developed the Burra Charter in 1979 to guide Australian conservation practice, and it's widely regarded today as international best practice. More than 1600 participants from 94 countries represented 73 of the National Committees of ICOMOS and 28 of the ICOMOS International Scientific Committees (ISC) at the 18th triennial General Assembly last November. The Australian delegation numbered 45, presenting scientific papers, chairing committees and program sessions.
