The Ancient Ruins at Palmyra Must Be Saved

UNESCO Director-General calls for immediate cessation of hostilities in #WorldHeritage Palmyra. “I am deeply concerned by the situation at the site of Palmyra. The fighting is putting at risk one of the most significant sites in the Middle East, and its civilian population” http://ow.ly/Ncw42 #Unite4Heritage 

Cultural Heritage is All Around Us

Cultural heritage is much more than buildings and monuments – it's something you find everywhere! From books and objects, to music and dance, to skills and cultural practices, why not share with UNESCO the examples of cultural heritage that are important to you? #Unite4Heritage www.unite4heritage.org — with René Friede.
