Criteria for the inclusion of cultural properties in the World
Heritage List
[from WHC.02/2 July 2002, Operational Guidelines for the
Implementation of the World Heritage Convention]
The criteria for the inclusion of cultural properties in the World
Heritage List should always be seen in relation to one another and
should be considered in the context of the definition set out in
Article 1 of the Convention which is reproduced below:
"monuments: architectural works, works of monumental
sculpture and painting, elements or structures of an
archaeological nature, inscriptions, cave dwellings and
combinations of features, which are of outstanding
universal value from the point of view of history, art or
science;
groups of buildings: groups of separate or connected
buildings which, because of their architecture, their
homogeneity or their place in the landscape, are of
outstanding universal value from the point of view of
history, art or science;
sites: works of man or the combined works of nature and
of man, and areas including archaeological sites which
are of outstanding universal value from the historical,
aesthetic, ethnological or anthropological points of view."
A monument, group of buildings or site - as defined above - which
is nominated for inclusion in the World Heritage List will be
considered to be of outstanding universal value for the purpose of
the Convention when the Committee finds that it meets one or
more of the following criteria and the test of authenticity. Each
property nominated should therefore:
(i) represent a masterpiece of human creative
genius; or
(ii) exhibit an important interchange of human
values, over a span of time or within a cultural
area of the world, on developments in
architecture or technology monumental arts or
town-planning and landscape design; or
(iii) bear a unique or at least exceptional testimony to
a cultural tradition or to a civilization which is
living or which has disappeared; or
(iv) be an outstanding example of a type of building
or architectural or technological ensemble or
landscape which illustrates [a) significant stage(s)
in human history; or
(v) be an outstanding example of a traditional human
settlement or land-use which is representative of
a culture (or cultures), especially when it has
become vulnerable under the impact of
irreversible change; or
(vi) be directly or tangibly associated with events or
living traditions, with ideas, or with beliefs, with
artistic and literary works of outstanding universal
significance (the Committee considers that this
criterion should justify inclusion in the List only in
exceptional circumstances and in conjunction with
other criteria cultural or natural);
16

delineated areas which constitute the habitat of
threatened species of animals and plants of outstanding
universal value from the point of view of science or
conservation;
natural sites or precisely delineated natural areas of
outstanding universal value from the point of view of
science, conservation or natural beauty."
A natural heritage property - as defined above - which is submitted
for inclusion in the World Heritage List will be considered to be of
outstanding universal value for the purposes of the Convention
when the Committee finds that it meets one or more of the
following criteria and fulfils the conditions of integrity set out below.
Sites nominated should therefore:

stages of earth's history, including the record of
life, significant on-going geological processes in

on-going ecological and biological processes in
the evolution and development of terrestrial,
fresh water, coastal and marine ecosystems and
communities of plants and animals; or
(iii) contain superlative natural phenomena or areas
