     The World Heritage List was established under terms of The Convention
Concerning the Protection of World Culture and Natural Heritage adopted in
November, 1972 at the 17th General Conference of UNESCO.

     The Convention states that a World Heritage Committee 'will establish,
keep up-to-date and publish' a World Heritage List of cultural and natural
properties, submitted by the States and considered to be of outstanding
universal value.

     One of the main responsibilities of this Committee is to provide
technical co-operation under the World Heritage Fund for the safeguarding
of World Heritage Sites to States Parties whose resources are insufficient.

     States Parties can request international assistance under the Fund for
expert missions, training of specialized staff, and supply of equipment
when appropriate; they can also apply for long-term loans and, in special
cases, non-repayable grants. Requests must concern work necessary for the
preservation of cultural or natural sites included in the World Heritage
List or assistance to national or regional training centres.

     Emergency assistance is also available under the Fund in the case of
properties severely damaged by specific natural or man-made disasters or
threatened with imminent destruction.

     As of December 1996, 147 Member States had ratified the Convention,
the United States being the first to do so. As of December 1996, the number
of sites on the World Heritage List stood at 506. The Committee named 12
sites in 1978, 45 in 1979, 28 in 1980, 26 in 1981, 24 in 1982, 29 in 1983,
23 in 1984, 30 in 1985, 31 in 1986, 41 in 1987, 27 in 1988, 7 in 1989, 17
in 1990, 22 in 1991, 20 in 1992, 33 in 1993, 29 in 1994, 29 in 1995, and 37
in 1996.

     * Small discrepancies in numbers may be due to different methods of
numbering sites, and overlapping of sites into two countries.
