Dear colleagues,

We thank you for the input and are proposing the following amendment to WFR 5 on the Protection of landmarks of human heritage. The organisation we envisioned with the PESCO proposal is within the operations in which we wish to expand the cultural protection we aimed in our proposal. We believe that an expansion of the ICHPP’s jurisdiction will help preserve cultural aspects ranging from languages to dances from extinction.
