15 June 2021/ UNESCO World Heritage Centre
The UNESCO Recommendation on the Historic Urban Landscape (HUL Recommendation) celebrates its 10th anniversary this year. To mark the start of the celebrations, UNESCO, in collaboration with other partners, is planning to host the HUL Anniversary launch celebrations, which will take place online from 16 to 24 June 2021.
During the event, discussions cases addressing topics such as public space, renovations, tourism, infrastructure and livelihoods will be explored and will serve as a catalyst to discuss on ways forward of the HUL approach.
23 June: Celebrating the 10th Anniversary of the UNESCO Recommendation on the Historic Urban Landscape and Launch of the HUL Call for Action
On 23 June, the HUL Call for Action will be launched. The Call breaks the Recommendation down into concrete “Three Actions”, in order to promote the HUL implementation for cities. The main participants will be Mayors, partners and high-level representatives from World Heritage and non-World Heritage cities, as they have the capacity to champion and mainstream the approach in their urban planning.
Register to the session on 23 June
24 June: Implementing the HUL Recommendation in World Heritage Cities
The 24 June session will focus on the application of the HUL approach to the World Heritage cities. Challenges triggered by the pandemic such as the drop in tourism and restricted urban-based activities will be discussed, with HUL serving as a potential mitigation framework.
