Let's pick up the thread, together.

We are excited to present a new format for our newsletter, marking a re-launch of OurWorldHeritage. While staying true to our core mission—amplifying the voices of heritage communities in the governance of natural and cultural (World) Heritage—we are now opening up our network of 3,700+ newsletter subscribers (including you) and thousands of online followers to your contributions.

Whether you are part of a local community, a site manager, a heritage organisation, a scholar, or anyone working to sustain heritage places and practices, this is for you! And, you are invited to share your stories, work, ideas, concerns, challenges, or announcements. We look forward to receiving your input via www.ourworldheritage.org/share.

We also invite you for our open Monthly Meetings, a space to discuss the ongoing work of OurWorldHeritage, or to simply connect. Meetings take place every first Friday of each month. You can join the meetings through www.ourworldheritage.org/meetings.

For all other matters, please visit www.ourworldheritage.org/step-in.

We hope this new format helps you to connect, collaborate, and amplify the knowledge and creativity already present in this network. Thank you for promoting this email in your cultural and natural heritage network!
