Publication of the updated Operational Guidelines in Arabic

The latest version of the Operational Guidelines for the implementation of the World Heritage Convention is now available in Arabic on the World Heritage Centre website and the Arab Regional Centre for World Heritage (ARC-WH) website.

This version of the guidelines has been translated, published and printed with support and funding from ARC-WH. The Operational Guidelines (Arabic) has not been updated since the previous text was published online in February 2005.

This historic development is a crucial step forward towards supporting Arabic speaking heritage professionals and experts in the safeguarding and protection of cultural and natural heritage in the Arab region.
