Publié à l’occasion du 40e anniversaire de la Convention du patrimoine mondial, ce recueil thématique d’études de cas offre une analyse approfondie des sites du patrimoine mondial et de leur valeur universelle exceptionnelle dans le contexte du développement durable. Les études de cas décrivent vingt-six sites du patrimoine mondial représentant une variété de thèmes, de typologies et de régions ; elles expliquent leurs apports positifs aux communautés locales et aux écosystèmes, et partagent les enseignements tirés avec toutes les parties prenantes impliquées. Le livre met l’accent sur une vision holistique et intégrée du patrimoine mondial, le reliant avec le rôle joué par les communautés locales dans sa gestion et sa protection, avec les questions de durabilité des écosystèmes et de préservation de la diversité biologique, linguistique et culturelle. La dimension interdisciplinaire de ce livre ralliera les chercheurs, les praticiens, les représentants des communautés et le grand public, et encouragera la conservation du patrimoine culturel et naturel, vecteur clé du développement durable et de la cohésion sociale.
