Article. Culture & Development No. 11.
After UNESCO established the International Slave Route Project in 1994, the Cuban Committee was created in the same year, and steps were taken to conduct a census of heritage places and sites related to the African heritage in Cuban culture. The results were published, in a timely manner and in a summarized version, in the Catauro review. There were 705 places with very different characteristics, including names, conservation status, integrity, classification, declaration and typology, which provided initial reference for more ambitious purposes.

The CCBP is a long-term training programme to strengthen capacities of Caribbean Member States in effectively implementing the 1972 Convention concerning the Protection of the World Cultural and Natural Heritage –the World Heritage Convention. CCBP is implemented by the UNESCO Regional Office for Culture in Latin America and the Caribbean in Havana, in close coordination with the Organization’s World Heritage Centre and the UNESCO Offices in Kingston and Port-au-Prince. UNESCO Havana has carried out an internal and an external evaluation of CCBP to analyse the actions taken so far under this programme and identify a number of lessons learned and recommendations that may help improve its implementation in the coming years.

Article. Culture & Development No. 11.
In the SIDS international processes, Culture was acknowledged as a dimension of the development paradigm in the Barbados Programme of Action (BPOA), adopted in 1994. The opening paragraph clearly highlighted its importance: “The survival of small island developing states is firmly rooted in their human resources and cultural heritage, which are their most significant assets; those assets are under severe stress and all efforts must be taken to ensure the central position of people in the process of sustainable development.”

Article. Culture & Development No. 11.
Heritage is a powerful asset for economic development, as it attracts investors and generates stable, decent, well-placed jobs. However, these benefits are not automatic. Collaboration is required by the parties involved: authorities at all levels, private sector, and civil society. There is also a need for a broad vision that is supported by a well-calibrated strategy. UNESCO is making efforts along these lines, implementing its various heritage-related conventions.
