Learning from the Science of the Past to Inform the Science of the Future

ICOMOS Online Side Event in the Framework of the UN Water Conference

Organised by the International Committee on the Underwater Cultural Heritage (ICUCH)

"Listening only to the science of the future risks forgetting the lessons of the past. Climate change will not only affect the earth's biodiversity, landscapes and ecosystems, but also have significant impacts on humanity with economic, political, cultural, health and identity implications especially in small island developing states. Rising sea levels and storm surges will inundate coastal towns and heritage on the coastal margins, threatening the very existence of entire communities.

This session will bring together experts on these themes to explore various topics that have a major impact on waters, both inland and offshore, which are critical elements of the 2030 Agenda."
