Cultural Heritage in South-East Europe: KOSOVO 2
Protection and Conservation of a Multi-Ethnic Heritage in Danger. Mission Report, 26-30 April 2004.
|
 This publication follows a previous report prepared by a Mission dispatched by UNESCO to Kosovo, second of a series of studies that UNESCO is carrying out within its Strategy for Strengthening Cooperation in South-East Europe (please refer to the website).
__________________________________
THIS REPORT arises from the fact-finding mission of high-level specialists that I dispatched to Kosovo in April 2004 in the wake of the outburst of violence and destruction that had occurred there one month earlier. The mission’s task was to make recommendations on priority projects for the restoration, rehabilitation and reconstruction of cultural monuments in Kosovo, in consultation with the Government of Serbia and Montenegro and in cooperation with the United Nations Interim Administration Mission in Kosovo (UNMIK). This report follows and complements a previous one that had resulted from a mission of UNESCO specialists sent to Kosovo in 2003. Both are published in the series of documents on “Cultural Heritage in South-East Europe”.
In agreement with the Secretary-General of the United Nations, I have decided to organize a conference of donors early in 2005 with a view to eliciting support for and encouraging collaboration with UNESCO in its efforts to implement the recommendations made in the two reports. Indeed, this meeting will provide an opportunity to develop a framework for coordinating the contributions of the international community towards the restoration, reconstruction and protection of cultural heritage in Kosovo. Morever, the conference will serve as a concrete step in UNESCO’s overall effort to encourage intercultural and inter-ethnic dialogue in South-East Europe.
Let me take this opportunity to appeal once again to Governments, international organizations and donors from the private sector to join with UNESCO in the task of restoring and protecting the invaluable cultural treasures in Kosovo.
Foreword by the Director-General of UNESCO, Koďchiro Matsuura.
