The joint UNESCO/ UNWTO strategy, which addresses the overarching principles
of sustainable growth, community development, heritage management and conservation, follows years of ground-breaking research carried out by UNESCO, the International Council on Monuments and Sites (ICOMOS) and University College London (UCL).
Specifically, the project aims to:
Set priority projects for developing tourism and safeguarding heritage across the Corridors
Guarantee a balanced approach between site-conservation and site-promotion
Identify strategic opportunities for economic growth and job creation
Outline the different components of the project while demonstrating their inter-dependence
Promote maximum engagement from all relevant stakeholders
Provide a step-by-step picture of how this wide-ranging project will be implemented
