Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: À l'aube d'une nouvelle ère de défis et d'opportunités mondiaux, l'UNESCO est plus que jamais au coeur des efforts internationaux visant à promouvoir l'éducation, la science, la culture et la communication comme piliers d'une paix durable et du développement à l'échelle mondiale. Cet ouvrage complet retrace l'histoire complexe, les objectifs ambitieux et les programmes de grande envergure de l'UNESCO qui, depuis sa création en 1945, visent à jeter des ponts entre les peuples, à préserver le patrimoine commun de l'humanité et à promouvoir une société de la connaissance inclusive. Depuis ses débuts dans l'ombre de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, en passant par les moments décisifs de l'ordre mondial d'après-guerre, jusqu'aux défis actuels dans un monde de plus en plus interconnecté mais aussi fragmenté, ce livre dresse un tableau vivant de l'UNESCO. Il met en lumière l'organisation en tant qu'architecture de l'espoir - un espoir pour un monde où l'éducation est accessible à tous, où la science est utilisée pour le bien de tous, où la diversité culturelle est comprise et protégée comme une force, et où la liberté d'opinion et d'échange est sans entrave. En présentant des programmes et des initiatives clés, des efforts de protection du patrimoine culturel mondial à la promotion de l'alphabétisation et de l'apprentissage tout au long de la vie, en passant par les ambitions en matière de promotion de la science et de protection de la biodiversité, l'ouvrage révèle le rôle central de l'UNESCO dans l'élaboration des agendas mondiaux et dans le soutien aux États membres et aux communautés sur le terrain. Dans le même temps, le texte n'hésite pas à mettre en lumière les défis politiques, financiers et structurels auxquels l'organisation est confrontée - de la politisation aux difficultés de financement, en passant par la nécessité de prouver son efficacité et sa pertinence dans un monde en rapide évolution. En présentant de manière équilibrée les succès et les controverses, l'ouvrage offre un aperçu approfondi de la dynamique de la coopération internationale et de la complexité des politiques culturelles et éducatives au niveau mondial. Tourné vers l'avenir, l'ouvrage discute de la manière dont l'UNESCO doit s'adapter et évoluer pour faire face aux nouvelles conditions mondiales - de la numérisation dans l'éducation à la promotion du développement durable et au renforcement du dialogue interculturel. L'ouvrage se termine par un examen du rôle de l'UNESCO dans le contexte du conflit ukrainien, comme un exemple actuel de la manière dont l'organisation agit en temps de crise pour protéger le patrimoine culturel, soutenir l'éducation et contribuer à la sécurité des journalistes.

Download or read book S approprier le patrimoine culturel immat riel selon l Unesco written by Chloé Bour and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La convention adoptée par l'Unesco pour sauvegarder le patrimoine culturel immatériel (2003) institue une transformation profonde du rôle des acteurs dans l'attribution de la valeur patrimoniale. Celle-ci est désormais soumise à la « participation » des porteurs de patrimoine eux-mêmes (Unesco, 2003). Minorant l'expertise scientifique pratiquée jusqu'alors, l'enjeu participatif est cependant peu normé par la convention. La thèse analyse la façon dont les acteurs professionnels de deux organismes parapublics en Normandie et en Bretagne, dans l'inventaire du PCI, conçoivent et mettent en œuvre ce renversement par des innovations participatives dans leurs pratiques professionnelles. La thèse s'appuie sur l'observation participante au titre d'une Convention industrielle de formation par la recherche (Cifre) et met en miroir deux terrains régionaux où s'expriment des héritages contrastés : le dynamisme associatif breton laisse envisager une approche résolument participative, alors que l'expérience historique normande dans l'expertise ethnologique présage une approche plus technocratique. Selon une démarche compréhensive, la thèse met à jour le processus par lequel les pratiques de participation norment, déplacent et recomposent l'expertise patrimoniale pour développer et renforcer la compétence professionnelle dans les différents registres d'action : la mise en fiche du PCI, la construction d'un raisonnement et d'une rhétorique pour diffuser la notion, l'expérimentation d'inventaires dits « participatifs », la réalisation d'enquêtes et l'intervention sur le PCI pour sa sauvegarde. Se pose la question de la construction d'un collectif professionnel pour sa légitimité dans l'appareil patrimonial qui est traditionnellement tourné vers la production de savoirs savants et les dimensions matérielles du patrimoine.

This book was released on 2017-11-30 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This joint venture between ICOMOS, the advisory body to UNESCO on cultural sites, and the International Astronomical Union is the second volume in an ongoing exploration of themes and issues relating to astronomical heritage in particular and to science and technology heritage in general. It examines a number of key questions relating to astronomical heritage sites and their potential recognition as World Heritage, attempting to identify what might constitute "outstanding universal value" in relation to astronomy. "Heritage Sites of Astronomy and Archaeoastronomy--Volume 2" represents the culmination of several years' work to address some of the most challenging issues raised in the first ICOMOS-IAU Thematic Study, published in 2010. These include the recognition and preservation of the value of dark skies at both cultural and natural sites and landscapes; balancing archaeoastronomical considerations in the context of broader archaeological and cultural values; the potential for serial nominations; and management issues such as preserving the integrity of astronomical sightlines through the landscape.Its case studies are developed in greater depth than those in volume 1, and generally structured as segments of draft nomination dossiers. They include seven-stone antas (prehistoric dolmens) in Portugal and Spain, the thirteen towers of Chankillo in Peru, the astronomical timing of irrigation in Oman, Pic du Midi de Bigorre Observatory in France, Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan, and Aoraki-Mackenzie International Dark Sky Reserve in New Zealand. A case study on Stonehenge, already a World Heritage Site, focuses on preserving the integrity of the solstitial sightlines.As for the first ICOMOS-IAU Thematic Study, a international team of authors including historians, astronomers and heritage professionals is led by Professor Clive Ruggles for the IAU and Professor Michel Cotte for ICOMOS.

Download or read book Protected Area Governance and Management written by Graeme L. Worboys and published by ANU Press. This book was released on 2015-04-08 with total page 993 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Protected Area Governance and Management presents a compendium of original text, case studies and examples from across the world, by drawing on the literature, and on the knowledge and experience of those involved in protected areas. The book synthesises current knowledge and cutting-edge thinking from the diverse branches of practice and learning relevant to protected area governance and management. It is intended as an investment in the skills and competencies of people and consequently, the effective governance and management of protected areas for which they are responsible, now and into the future. The global success of the protected area concept lies in its shared vision to protect natural and cultural heritage for the long term, and organisations such as International Union for the Conservation of Nature are a unifying force in this regard. Nonetheless, protected areas are a socio-political phenomenon and the ways that nations understand, govern and manage them is always open to contest and debate. The book aims to enlighten, educate and above all to challenge readers to think deeply about protected areas—their future and their past, as well as their present. The book has been compiled by 169 authors and deals with all aspects of protected area governance and management. It provides information to support capacity development training of protected area field officers, managers in charge and executive level managers.

Download or read book World Heritage and Sustainable Development written by Peter Bille Larsen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-07-03 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2015, the General Assembly of State Parties to the World Heritage Convention passed a ground-breaking Sustainable Development policy that seeks to bring the World Heritage system into line with the UN’s sustainable development agenda (UNESCO 2015). World Heritage and Sustainable Development provides a broad overview of the process that brought about the new policy and the implications of its enactment. The book is divided into four parts. Part I puts the policy in its historical and theoretical context, and Part II offers an analysis of the four policy dimensions on which the policy is based – environmental sustainability, inclusive social development, inclusive economic development and the fostering of peace and security. Part III presents perspectives from IUCN, ICOMOS and ICCROM – the three Advisory Bodies to the World Heritage Committee, and Part IV offers ‘case study’ perspectives on the practical implications of the policy. Contributions come from a wide range of experienced heritage professionals and practitioners who offer both ‘inside’ perspectives on the evolution of the policy and ‘outside’ perspectives on its implications. Combined, they present and analyse the main ideas, debates and implications of the policy change. This book is key reading for all heritage professionals interested in developing a better understanding of the new Sustainable Development policy. It is also essential reading for scholars and students working in the area.

Download or read book Managing Environmental Disputes written by Pieter Glasbergen and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1995-06-30 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of sustainable development is a source of inspiration for many, who see it as a call to cooperative action. In practice, however, policies intended to further this goal often generate conflicts of interest. The ensuing disputes occur among governmental organizations, but disputes also arise between public authorities, private interest groups, and the environmental movement. In the opinion of the authors, the fact that environmental policy can provoke such conflict may be attributed largely to decision making procedures in our society. Accordingly, the authors are convinced that a new approach to managing environmental disputes is needed in order to deal effectively with environmental problems. Indeed, this book presents a viable alternative, which is called network management.

Download or read book Between Imagined Communities and Communities of Practice written by Nicolas Adell and published by Göttingen University Press. This book was released on 2015 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Community and participation have become central concepts in the nomination processes surrounding heritage, intersecting time and again with questions of territory. In this volume, anthropologists and legal scholars from France, Germany, Italy and the USA take up questions arising from these intertwined concerns from diverse perspectives: How and by whom were these concepts interpreted and re-interpreted, and what effects did they bring forth in their implementation? What impact was wielded by these terms, and what kinds of discursive formations did they bring forth? How do actors from local to national levels interpret these new components of the heritage regime, and how do actors within heritage-granting national and international bodies work it into their cultural and political agency? What is the role of experts and expertise, and when is scholarly knowledge expertise and when is it partisan? How do bureaucratic institutions translate the imperative of participation into concrete practices? Case studies from within and without the UNESCO matrix combine with essays probing larger concerns generated by the valuation and valorization of culture.
