\u2018Heritage at Risk: a Global Perspective\u2019 \u2013 ICOMOS-UK Photography Competition<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

To commemorate the 60th anniversary of ICOMOS, this photography competition seeks to highlight and raise awareness of heritage sites around the globe that are at risk or vulnerable. The competition will spotlight these precious sites, emphasizing the urgent need for preservation and the role of ICOMOS in advocating for their protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The competition is looking for photographs that capture the theme: \u2018Heritage at Risk: A Global Perspective<\/em>\u2019. We invite photographers to capture images that showcase the beauty and fragility of world heritage and other significant heritage sites that are exposed to risks such as environmental threats, neglect, or socio-political conflicts. The focus could be on illuminating these sites\u2019 vulnerabilities and the efforts needed to safeguard them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Photographs may include, but are not limited to, World Heritage Sites and lesser-known heritage sites that are at risk. Sites can be located anywhere around the world. Participants are encouraged to explore the interplay of natural beauty, historical significance, and the looming threats that these sites face. The images should not only document but also tell a compelling story of heritage under threat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
