It is with sadness that we have learned of the death of Mr. Marcel Junius (1925-2018), which occurred on June 6th. Born in Belgium, Marcel Junius was the first Secretary General of the Organization of World Heritage Cities (OWHC), from 1993 to 1998. It is therefore under the latter that the founding principles of the OWHC were established.
To the whole family, we offer our sincere condolences.
