1. BACKGROUND

Considering the significant contribution that has been made by the Wildlife Institute of India in the area of world natural heritage conservation the UNESCO has granted approval for the establishment of UNESCO Category 2 Centre on World Natural Heritage Management and Training for the Asia-Pacific Region at Wildlife Institute of India. This would be world’s first centre on natural heritage management and training to be established and would start functioning from April, 2014 onwards.

2. GOAL OF CATEGORY 2 CENTRE

The overall goal will be to strengthen the implementation of Unesco’s World Heritage Convention in the Asia-Pacific region with particular focus on natural heritage conservation. In line with the World Heritage capacity building programme designed by ICCROM, IUCN, ICOMOS and the UNESCO World Heritage Centre in 2012 the Centre will act on the following principles:

(a) Integration and exchange between the natural and cultural heritage sectors;

(b) Promotion and engagement of local communities;

(c) Promotion and engagement of those outside the heritage sector who have an impact on the conservation and management of World Heritage properties.

The Centre will address the capacity building needs of three key target audiences:

(a) Practitioners (those with direct responsibilities for natural heritage);

(b) Institutions (decision and policy makers);

(c) Communities/networks (all those who have a legitimate interest in natural heritage conservation).

By helping to implement the overall policy of the World Heritage Committee, the

Centre will:

(a) Contribute to the achievement of a more even geographical distribution of training and research institutions and activities in the field of Natural World Heritage conservation in the Asia-Pacific region;

Such fellows will be recognized for meritorious efforts to advance conservation science and its application in the management of natural world heritage properties in the region;

(f) Facilitate World Heritage educational and awareness building activities for various stakeholders.

4. FUNCTIONS OF CATEGORY 2 CENTRE

5. ACTIVITIES OF CATEGORY 2 CENTRE

The Category 2 Centre based in Wildlife Institute of India, Dehradun shall undertake a range of both short-term and long-term activities for various stakeholders; act as information repository; disseminate relevant knowledge and conduct collaborative workshops and meetings of the States Parties in Asia Pacific Region. A brief description of the activities is given below:

(a) Training Programmes on Preparation of Nomination Dossiers for (a)

Tentative Listing and (b) Inscription on the World Heritage List The Inscription of the sites on the World Heritage List is a two stage process viz. Preparation of a dossier for States Party’s Tentative List and Preparation of nomination dossier as per UNESCO’s Operational Guidelines for inscription on the World Heritage List. The Centre will organize a range of training programmes to build capacity of the site managers, local government officials and other relevant stakeholders to prepare high quality nomination dossiers for inscription of potential natural heritage properties. This activity can be summarized as: “Execute short-term and long-term training and education activities for site managers, local government officials and educators for the conservation of natural heritage, including those directed at the preparation of World Heritage nomination files, strengthening of conservation and management approaches for World Heritage properties”.

- 4 -

(b) Research Updates and Monitoring Protocols

Important aspects of natural heritage sites are the biodiversity values that justify the outstanding universal values of the site. Evaluating the status of important flora and fauna, especially endemic flora and fauna that are the key indicators of the nominated sites would be a very important activity of the site. It would be important to have research updates and to develop monitoring protocols. This activity can be summarized as “Undertake research on important World Heritage issues, and investigations of particular heritage resources in collaboration with relevant conservation training and research centres in the region”.

(c) Organization of Conference and Symposia on Thematic Areas The States Parties in Asia Pacific Region have their own distinct natural heritage as also distinct conservation concerns and planning processes. A common forum that would discuss, evaluate problems, explore scope for nominations in all member countries, exchange experiences of conservation planning and protection would help to better achieve the goals of the WHC. The C2C would also conduct training workshops for community awareness and participation and explore options of sustainable development initiatives that would help better integration of local economy with conservation. This activity can be summarized as “To conduct scientific symposia, conferences and workshops (regional and international) in all areas relating to World Natural Heritage. Encourage the development of a World Heritage site manager’s regional network to exchange information, experience and best practices”.

(d) Establishment of an Information Repository Information relevant to natural heritage sites particularly relating to biodiversity, common data pool that can be used for meta-analyses and broader landscape level approaches will be collated at the Centre. Researched information on the status and distribution of flora and fauna will also be maintained at the Centre. This activity can be summarized as “Collect available information in order to set up an accessible, secure and reliable database for World Natural Heritage in the region. Collect and disseminate relevant knowledge and information, and the outcomes of research activities through the Internet, and the publication of books, articles and other media”.

- 5 -

(e) Collaboration with States Parties

The activities of training, research, exchange of information through conferences and documentation and data-base maintenance would have a broader application and relevance if they are implemented through collaborative programmes among the States Parties. This activity can be summarized as “Promote collaborative programmes in specific areas of World Natural Heritage conservation and the exchange of conservation practitioners at the regional level in this context”.

(f) Establishment of UNESCO Fellows on Natural Heritage Conservation An essential activity of the Centre will be to strengthen capacity in the management of the Natural World Heritage sites through assistance in the preparation of site management plans and periodic monitoring reports. In order to promote training, research and academic excellence in this field it is proposed that a scheme of “UNESCO Fellows on Natural World Heritage

Conservation (NWHC)” would be instituted. The NWHC Fellows will be an expert group of eminent experts who work together as peers in the pursuit of knowledge and practice in the conservation of Natural World Heritage sites. Such Fellows will be recognized for meritorious efforts to advance conservation science and its application in the management of Natural World Heritage properties; and they will be treated on par with Fellows of National/ International Academies. This activity can be summarized as “Strengthening of capacity in the management of Natural World Heritage sites through instituting Fellowships on Natural World Heritage Conservation. Such Fellows will be recognized for meritorious efforts to advance conservation science and its application in the management of Natural World Heritage properties”.

(g) Dissemination of information As a step towards sensitizing the present and the future generations towards the values of the Natural World Heritages sties, the centre would develop a dissemination plan targeting the entire region and implement it. Developing a dissemination plan is a key part of the collaborative planning process. This activity can be summarized as “Sensitization of the local communities in and around the Natural World Heritage Sites and other stakeholders on the Natural World Heritage values. Facilitate the introduction of Natural World Heritage sites and their values in school and university curricula in the region”.
