Members of World Heritage Watch<\/h3><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Members of the international World Heritage Watch Network can be local groups, UNESCO Clubs, academic and informal initiatives which are based in or near World Heritage Sites; national and international NGOs working for World Heritage sites; indigenous groups and committed individuals.

Independence is our top priority. Officials of state or international bodies who participate in decision-making about World Heritage properties can not be members of World Heritage Watch.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n
