Heritage Alerts Initiative

The aim of this initiative is to use the expertise of the members of the ICOMOS-ISC 20C to assess the significance of and threats to a property indicated to be at risk; confirm the facts of the threat and the heritage significance of the property; alert the public to the significance and threat to the property at risk using ICOMOS networks to publicize the situation; selectively act to support the conservation of the property at risk; maintain a list of properties at risk and follow the results of any conservation action for future analysis; and provide input to the ICOMOS Heritage at Risk Report.

Opportunities for Member engagement with the Initiative:
Be part of the Advocacy sub-committee for one or more Heritage Alerts: as specified in the scope/mission, the expertise of the ICOMOS-ISC 20C members will be used to assess the significance of and threats to a property indicated to be at risk, supporting the ISC 20C Advocacy sub-committee throughout all the Heritage Alert Process.
