World Heritage
In 1972 the General Conference of UNESCO established the World Heritage List under the terms of the convention on the protection of the world's cultural and natural heritage.
The convention states that a World Heritage Committee "will keep up to date and publish a World Heritage List" of cultural and natural properties submitted by the parties to the convention, which are considered to be of outstanding universal value.
