ICOMOS International Scientific Committee on the Underwater Cultural Heritage (ICUCH) has published in partnership with the UNESCO UNITWIN Network for Underwater Archaeology a model code of practice for safe diving operations. This model code of practice has been drafted by the UNESCO UNITWIN Network for Underwater Archaeology, following on from the Network’s annual meeting in 2016 at UNESCO in Paris. The Network identified a lack of consistent practices and a need for common language related to scientific archaeological diving by its Members as a way to reduce barriers to international partnership working.
ICOMOS is participating in the World Heritage Site Managers’ Forum in Baku, Azerbaijan which takes place as part of the 43rd session of the World Heritage Committee from the 26 June to the 4 July 2019.
The Forum encourages international cooperation between world heritage site managers and better understanding of the World Heritage decision-making process.
