The Organization of World Heritage Cities (OWHC) is proud to announce its membership in the Climate Heritage Network for 2021. Climate science reminds us that adaptation and mitigation are essential to fight the climate crisis. Culture and heritage provide the creativity and inspiration to show us how to achieve it.
