The IAU's involvement in the Astronomy and World Heritage Initiative: achievements and challenges
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 27 October 2016
Abstract
Since 2008 the IAU has worked with UNESCO and its advisory bodies to help recognise, promote and protect all types of astronomical heritage and to encourage nominations for World Heritage Sites relating to astronomy. I review the main challenges and achievements so far, and indicate how the Astronomy and World Heritage Initiative is likely to develop in the future.
