Nominations are now open for the 2020 World Monuments Watch – a programme that uses cultural heritage conservation to empower communities and improve the sustainability of their cherished sites. Every two years, with support of founding sponsor American Express, we partner with citizens, activists, and experts in the field to recognize and take action at 25 significant sites in need around the world. The result? More resilient communities, enhanced social inclusion, and new skills in the conservation field and beyond. Watch sites in the UK have included Moseley Road Baths, The Grimsby Ice Factory and most recently Blackpool’s Piers.
