“On 16 November 1972, this important text (Convention Concerning the Protection of the World Cultural and Natural Heritage) was adopted – which has a very nice preamble and very precise articles and among them the need to create a list of sites which would be recognized as the most important sites of humanity, allowing the international community to act very quickly to preserve them in the face of (natural) disasters, in the face of conflicts, in the face of other development issues.”

“Out of a World Heritage list of 1,154 sites, almost half of these sites are mostly located in the Europe and North America region. Globally, one of the least represented regions on the World Heritage List is sub-Saharan Africa and then the Arab States. So, there is indeed an imbalance in terms of statistics on the list and this is an issue on which we will continue to work together with the member states.”

“When we talk about visited sites, we are talking about where tourism is much more present. And these sites, which are the most visited, for the most part, are certainly in regions like in Europe, like in North America. Many sites are also visited in Asia, and we know that tourism brings a lot to the development of sites, but also creates new jobs and helps with the well-being of populations, because it is precisely in development. But tourism can also be, when it is mass tourism, a factor of concern for World Heritage sites.”
