DESCRIPTION:

UNESCO's African World Heritage Day, celebrated annually on May 5th, is a day set aside to honor the African continent's rich and diverse cultural and natural heritage. Established during the 38th session of the UNESCO General Conference in 2015, this day underscores the importance of African World Heritage as a driver of sustainable development and a source of pride for African identities.

African World Heritage Day began in response to the underrepresentation of African sites on the World Heritage List and the specific challenges African heritage sites face, including underdevelopment, environmental pressures, and the impacts of conflict. The observance is an opportunity to celebrate the continent's unique heritage and to raise awareness about the need to preserve and protect it.

African World Heritage Day hosts activities across the continent and around the globe, including cultural festivals, exhibitions, educational programs, and conservation campaigns. The day serves as a call to action for African governments, local communities, and international partners to increase their commitment to safeguarding these sites.
