N2 - Climate change is the greatest threat facing humanity and its cultural heritage. The gravity of the situation was acknowledged at the 2020 ICOMOS General Assembly which declared a Climate and Ecological Emergency and called upon other culture and heritage organisations to do the same. It also called for urgent collective action by all relevant actors to safeguard cultural and natural heritage from climate change, acknowledging that existing heritage practices, mechanisms and methodologies may need to change or be supplemented. The Assembly significantly resolved that, for the first time, its next Triennial Scientific Plan (TSP 2021-2024) would be focused on climate change action, and resolved to support collaborative work between all its committees and members for presentation as the TSP 2021-2024 to the 2021 General Assembly.
