Your safety comes first.

A quick note before you share

To keep our platform accessible and inclusive:

  • We only promote events that offer a livestream or other form of online access.

  • All contributions must follow the OWH Ethical Contribution Guidelines (PDF). The Editorial Team oversees this.

  • Publishing a contribution does not mean OWH endorses it, and OWH cannot be held responsible for its content.

  • Submissions are published on the website first and may then be included in the next newsletter.

  • OWH may edit for clarity, readability, and alignment with our style. We will always discuss any substantial changes with you before publishing.

  • Reader tips cannot be used to promote your own work.

By sending content to worldheritage.2022[at]gmail.com, you:

  1. agree to the terms above; and

  2. give OWH permission to publish your content (you can revoke this at any time).
