Revision as of 04:25, 2 October 2023
The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) World Heritage Sites (WHS) are places of importance to cultural or natural heritage as described in the UNESCO World Heritage Convention, established in 1972.[1] Per the convention's criteria, cultural heritage consists of monuments (such as architectural works, monumental sculptures, or inscriptions), groups of buildings, and sites (including archaeological sites). Natural features (consisting of physical and biological formations), geological and physiographical formations (including habitats of threatened flora and fauna), and sites from scientifical research, conservation, or aesthetic points of view are considered as natural heritage.[2]
The Philippines, following its ratification of the convention on September 19, 1985, made its historical and natural sites eligible for inclusion on the list. The country had its first sites (the Baroque Churches and Tubbataha Reefs Natural Park) included in 1993, and now has six sites, the latest being the Mount Hamiguitan Range Wildlife Sanctuary in 2014. Of those six sites, three each are cultural and natural.[3] The government of the Philippines has also put 19 sites on the tentative list, meaning that they intend to consider them for WHS nomination in the future.[4] The country's heritage-related organizations plan to release a new tentative list by late 2023, with sites like the Agusan Marsh Wildlife Sanctuary and San Sebastian Basilica.[5] The lack of WHS were mainly reasoned to little awareness among locals, the absence of competent people in the WHS process, and the lack of government funding.[6]
