World Heritage Committee definition

World Heritage Committee means the UNESCO World Heritage Committee;
World Heritage Committee means the Heritage Committee estab- lished in terms of Article of the Convention:
World Heritage Committee means the Intergovernmental Committee for the Protection of the World Cultural and Natural Heritage, as established by the World Heritage Convention. The Committee consists of 21 States Parties to the Convention, duly elected by all States Parties to the Convention to guide implementation of the Convention, including by establishing and maintaining the World Heritage List. Amongst its functions is to review nomination proposals submitted by States Parties to determine whether the nominated properties meet the requirements for inscription on the World Heritage List, in particular whether the nominated properties have OUV. When the Committee inscribes a nominated property on the World Heritage List, it expects the relevant State Party and site manager to conserve, protect, and present this OUV and to transmit it to future generations. It becomes a stakeholder in the management of the property, with a duty to take an interest in the property’s state of conservation. The World Heritage Committee may delete a site from the World Heritage List if it determines that the property has deteriorated to the extent that it has lost those characteristics that justified its inclusion on the World Heritage List.
