As such, it can ser ve as an indicator of the effectiveness of protected and conserved areas at a time when the international community seeks to measure progress towards global biodiversity targets and defines the Post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework. Focusing on the natural values for which sites are inscribed, threats to these values, and the effectiveness of actions to protect them, the IUCN World Heritage Outlook assesses the conservation prospects of all natural World Heritage sites.

'World-Heritage-and-Sustainable-Development', 2013 04 (2011 06).pdf

In the last session of the second day of the conference a round-table panel session was held where the pros and cons of the establishment of an ICOMOS Global Heritage Monitoring Network -an ICOMOS International initiative currently in its initial phases of development -was discussed. The panel was headed by Gustavo Araoz (President, ICOMOS) and comprised of other prominent ICOMOS members including Kristal Buckley (Vice-President, ICOMOS), Prof. Dr. Leo Schmidt FSA (Head of Department, Department of Architectural Conservation, BTU Cottbus), Prof. Dr. Nobuko Inaba (Director, World Heritage Studies, Graduate School of Comprehensive Human Sciences, University of Tsukuba), and Christoph Machat (Executive Committee Member, ICO-MOS). The proposed establishment of a network, now renamed as "Global Heritage Trends Network", which would assist the international conservation community in understanding and documenting changes taking place at heritage sites worldwide and thus develop a better management system for safeguarding the sites for future generations, was welcomed with much enthusiasm. In addition, during this session, which was moderated by Sheridan Burke (President, ICOMOS ISC20C), the possible ways in which BTU Cottbus, as represented by its Department of Architectural Conservation, and IAWHP e.V. could collaborate with ICOMOS International in taking this initiative forward were discussed.
