WEBVTT 1 00:00:13.100 --> 00:00:15.000 Hi, everyone. In this section, 2 00:00:15.000 --> 00:00:20.568 I'm going to continue to talk about the importance of the World Heritage Program 3 00:00:20.568 --> 00:00:23.128 and the definition of the culture heritage. 4 00:00:23.128 --> 00:00:27.725 In this section, I will continue to talk about the significant concept of 5 00:00:27.725 --> 00:00:32.269 World Heritage Program and the definition of the cultural heritage. 6 00:00:33.550 --> 00:00:36.429 Well, you can see from these images, 7 00:00:36.877 --> 00:00:41.869 it shows the importance of the organization of the World Heritage Programs. 8 00:00:42.061 --> 00:00:46.221 And this is the sign of the UNSCO world heritage center. 9 00:00:46.221 --> 00:00:53.837 And this shows ICOMOS which is importance evaluation societies 10 00:00:53.837 --> 00:00:57.725 for the UNESCO world heritage properties, and you know, 11 00:00:57.725 --> 00:01:04.875 the UNESCO world heritage center established in 1976 and the ICOMOS 12 00:01:04.875 --> 00:01:10.379 and the ICOMOS established after the international council on the monument 13 00:01:10.379 --> 00:01:16.523 and the sites conference, which we call a commerce and established in1965. 14 00:01:17.405 --> 00:01:25.341 And this is another two important evaluation bodies for World Heritage Program, 15 00:01:25.341 --> 00:01:33.030 It's the 1956 establishThe International Centre,we call the IUCN, 16 00:01:33.030 --> 00:01:41.378 The 1956 establish the International Center for the Study of the Preservation 17 00:01:41.378 --> 00:01:46.709 and Restoration of Cultural Property,which we called ICCROM. 18 00:01:46.901 --> 00:01:53.429 You can see from the pyramid which shows importance of the heritage sites. 19 00:01:53.429 --> 00:01:56.886 The top of the pyramid is a World Heritage, 20 00:01:56.886 --> 00:02:02.279 which process we will definitely use several cause to 21 00:02:02.279 --> 00:02:05.159 talk about outstanding universal value. 22 00:02:05.159 --> 00:02:09.895 It is the highest of the highest is the sites, the monument, 23 00:02:09.895 --> 00:02:14.383 the natural enrollment who process the outstanding universal value 24 00:02:14.383 --> 00:02:20.079 can be accessed and to evaluate as a World Heritage sites. 25 00:02:20.079 --> 00:02:24.239 And then there is a different level at the national level, 26 00:02:24.239 --> 00:02:29.039 at the provincial level, at the regional level, at the local level. 27 00:02:29.039 --> 00:02:33.734 And you know, you can assessment the universal value 28 00:02:33.734 --> 00:02:38.022 from the different level of the heritage sites. 29 00:02:38.022 --> 00:02:42.246 But the highest site is outstanding universal value 30 00:02:42.246 --> 00:02:44.550 to be the World Heritage site. 31 00:02:46.086 --> 00:02:49.030 Well, you can see from these images. 32 00:02:49.030 --> 00:02:54.662 Now, there are more than one thousand World Heritage sites, 33 00:02:54.662 --> 00:03:04.689 which there are 869 culture heritage sites and 213 natural heritage sites. 34 00:03:04.689 --> 00:03:08.209 And 39 mixed heritage sites. 35 00:03:08.209 --> 00:03:14.457 Also there are 39 sites is transnational and transboundary 36 00:03:14.457 --> 00:03:16.533 and two sites has been deleted 37 00:03:16.533 --> 00:03:21.612 because of the conservation issues or suffering something issues 38 00:03:21.612 --> 00:03:28.780 like wars protein or other things are also can be leased in World Heritage in danger. 39 00:03:28.780 --> 00:03:37.071 And in this course we majorly talk about the criterion to assessment of 40 00:03:37.071 --> 00:03:41.487 what is the culture heritage site and what is the natural heritage site 41 00:03:41.487 --> 00:03:45.391 and what is a mixed site and other important issues 42 00:03:45.391 --> 00:03:49.103 about World Heritage and its tourism issues. 43 00:03:49.295 --> 00:03:53.827 And now you can see that there are 167 countries 44 00:03:53.827 --> 00:03:58.202 has signed would have the convention has been the state parties for 45 00:03:58.202 --> 00:04:00.250 UNESCO World Heritage conventions. 46 00:04:00.463 --> 00:04:04.244 You can see from the pictures and what can you find. 47 00:04:04.697 --> 00:04:08.601 So the most important thing are that you can see from 48 00:04:08.601 --> 00:04:11.481 the red docs means the cultural heritage 49 00:04:11.545 --> 00:04:16.217 The one of the key issues is that majority of 50 00:04:16.217 --> 00:04:20.761 the cultural heritage is located in the Western, in Europe. 51 00:04:20.825 --> 00:04:26.691 So that is one key issue is that World Heritage depletion 52 00:04:26.691 --> 00:04:32.323 and its outstanding universal value is designed by western countries. 53 00:04:32.323 --> 00:04:36.459 So that you can see in China, in Africa, in America, 54 00:04:36.459 --> 00:04:39.275 or the Northern Americas, there are not many 55 00:04:39.275 --> 00:04:43.755 World Heritage sites as many as Western Europe. 56 00:04:43.755 --> 00:04:49.451 And in these pictures also shows that you can see that the red site, 57 00:04:49.451 --> 00:04:52.400 the red site means World Heritage in danger. 58 00:04:52.400 --> 00:04:59.824 And most of these sites located in Africa and in Middle East Asia. 59 00:04:59.824 --> 00:05:05.264 So which means that because these areas suffering different kind of programs 60 00:05:05.264 --> 00:05:09.936 such as civil wars, the conflict between relations 61 00:05:09.936 --> 00:05:13.968 and the portion and environmental disasters. 62 00:05:13.968 --> 00:05:20.880 The one of the key issues for the UNESCO is to preserve this site 63 00:05:20.880 --> 00:05:25.680 and called for international help to remedy this problem. 64 00:05:27.024 --> 00:05:32.464 Well, the World Heritage operation of guidelines is 65 00:05:32.464 --> 00:05:36.624 one of the significant things I will talk about. 66 00:05:36.624 --> 00:05:41.186 The World Heritage Committee, the main body in charge of 67 00:05:41.186 --> 00:05:46.227 the implementation of the Convention, has developed precise criteria for 68 00:05:46.227 --> 00:05:50.003 the inscription of properties on the World Heritage List 69 00:05:50.003 --> 00:05:57.747 and for the provision of international assistance under the World Heritage Fund. 70 00:05:57.939 --> 00:06:04.059 These are all included in a document entitled "Operational Guidelines for 71 00:06:04.059 --> 00:06:07.707 the Implementation of the World Heritage Convention". 72 00:06:07.771 --> 00:06:13.339 This document has been revised by the Committee 73 00:06:13.339 --> 00:06:17.691 to reflect new concepts, knowledge or experiences. 74 00:06:17.691 --> 00:06:22.299 The next section I'm going to talk about what is the cultural heritage. 75 00:06:24.027 --> 00:06:29.898 So what is a cultural heritage? Cultural property includes the physical 76 00:06:29.898 --> 00:06:34.550 or tangible cultural heritage such as artwork. 77 00:06:34.550 --> 00:06:42.422 These are generally split into two groups of movable and immovable heritage. 78 00:06:42.742 --> 00:06:48.694 You can see that the immovable heritage includes buildings, 79 00:06:48.694 --> 00:06:55.542 so which themselves maybe include installed arts such as organs, 80 00:06:55.542 --> 00:07:04.096 stained glass windows and fresoes, large industrial installations 81 00:07:04.096 --> 00:07:06.976 or other historical place and monuments. 82 00:07:07.360 --> 00:07:13.376 Moveable heritage includes books, documents, moveable artworks, 83 00:07:13.440 --> 00:07:21.408 machines, clothing, and other artifacts, that are considered worthy of preservation for the future. 84 00:07:21.408 --> 00:07:26.208 These include objects significant to the archaeology, 85 00:07:26.208 --> 00:07:26.221 architecture, science or technology of a specified culture. 86 00:07:26.221 --> 00:07:31.328 architecture, science or technology of a specified culture. 87 00:07:31.328 --> 00:07:38.880 Well, you know, the actual definition for the World Heritage. 88 00:07:38.880 --> 00:07:44.768 There are three types of the things can be listed as a cultural heritage site. 89 00:07:44.768 --> 00:07:47.072 So one is the monuments. 90 00:07:47.072 --> 00:07:52.512 Monuments include the architecture works, works of the monument, 91 00:07:52.512 --> 00:08:00.128 sculpture, planning elements, or structure of an archaeological lecture inscription, 92 00:08:00.128 --> 00:08:05.875 caves dealings, and the completion of features which are of outstanding 93 00:08:05.875 --> 00:08:11.763 universal value from the point of view of history, art or science. 94 00:08:12.723 --> 00:08:20.723 So the group buildings, the groups of separate or connected buildings which, 95 00:08:20.723 --> 00:08:27.059 because of their architecture, their homogeneity or their place in the landscape, 96 00:08:27.059 --> 00:08:33.846 are of outstanding universal value from the point of view of history, art or science. 97 00:08:33.846 --> 00:08:39.350 And the third category is the sites, which includes the works of man 98 00:08:39.350 --> 00:08:42.998 or the combined works of nature and man, 99 00:08:42.998 --> 00:08:50.620 and areas including archaeological sites which are of outstanding universal value 100 00:08:50.620 --> 00:08:56.060 from the historical, aesthetic, ethnological or anthropological point of view. 101 00:08:57.084 --> 00:09:04.892 So, well, there are six criteria to evaluate which sites can be list 102 00:09:04.892 --> 00:09:11.612 as a world cultural heritage sites, once a property, if they, you know, 103 00:09:11.612 --> 00:09:17.564 fulfill one of the criteria that can be list as the World Heritage. 104 00:09:17.948 --> 00:09:24.092 The first criteria is representing a masterpiece of human creative genius. 105 00:09:24.220 --> 00:09:30.492 The second criteria is exhibiting exhibit an important interchange of human values, 106 00:09:30.492 --> 00:09:37.660 over a span of time or within a cultural area of the world, on developments in 107 00:09:37.660 --> 00:09:43.996 architecture or technology, monumental arts, town-planning or landscape design. 108 00:09:43.996 --> 00:09:51.932 The third criteria is bearing bear a unique or at least exceptional testimony 109 00:09:51.932 --> 00:09:59.676 to a cultural tradition or to a civilization which is living or which has disappeared; 110 00:10:00.892 --> 00:10:08.380 So the fourth criteria is being an outstanding example of a type of building, 111 00:10:08.380 --> 00:10:13.372 architectural or technological ensemble or landscape 112 00:10:13.372 --> 00:10:17.340 which illustrates (a) significant stage(s) in human history; 113 00:10:17.340 --> 00:10:25.560 The fifth criteria is being an outstanding example of a traditional human settlement, 114 00:10:25.560 --> 00:10:31.492 land-use, or sea-use which is representative of a culture (or cultures), 115 00:10:31.492 --> 00:10:36.033 or human interaction with the environment especially 116 00:10:36.033 --> 00:10:43.466 when it has become vulnerable under the impact of irreversible change; 117 00:10:43.466 --> 00:10:52.737 So the criteria six, which is a very special ones, is cannot be listed by itself, 118 00:10:52.737 --> 00:10:58.241 but to cooperate with one of the other four criteria. 119 00:10:58.241 --> 00:11:08.225 So the six criteria is being directly or tangibly associated with events or living traditions, 120 00:11:08.225 --> 00:11:11.751 with ideas, or with beliefs, with artistic and literary works of 121 00:11:11.751 --> 00:11:13.863 outstanding universal significance. 122 00:11:13.863 --> 00:11:16.231 So this is the end of this section. 123 00:11:16.231 --> 00:11:21.863 The next section, we will continue to talk about each of the criterion 124 00:11:21.863 --> 00:11:28.967 to access the world cultural heritage site and each by each. 125 00:11:28.967 --> 00:11:29.990 Thank you.
