Take a deep breath. What you see before you are the famous Dolomites, the Pale Mountains that have fascinated generations of climbers, artists and travellers. Home to thousands of people, they are one of the top tourist destinations in the Alps and the world<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

ln 2009 the Dolomites were inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List, official acknowledgement of the outstanding value these mountains and their wealth of geology and beautiful scenery have for the whole of mankind.\u00a0 Inscription does not mean the site comes under the protection of UNESCO, it means it recognises its exceptional qualities which deserve greater knowledge and understanding so they can be sympathetically enhanced and passed on to future generations. Walking in the Dolomites, you are overwhelmed by the power of the sublime, as you realise that the slope you see today was actually the escarpment of a tropical atoll that existed 230 million years ago.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The UNESCO Dolomites site is probably one of the most complex sites in the world as far as its management is concerned.\u00a0 It is a serial Property, consisting of nine Systems that cover 142 thousand hectares, five provinces and three regions. The UNESCO Dolomites Foundation was set up in accordance with UNESCO upon receiving recognition to help the different areas run the Property together in a coordinated manner.\u00a0 It is not the Dolomites tourist board or a control body. It believes in managing the Property through networks, espousing the principle that cooperation, rather than boxing off the individual areas so they are in competition with each other, is the key to success.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

To achieve this, the Foundation develops and coordinates a whole variety of initiatives and activities, giving each of the areas in the UNESCO Dolomites the chance to take part in these projects and good practices which are organised to help communicate, enhance and manage the World Heritage Site.\u00a0 Its objective is to raise awareness among the Dolomite communities of the outstanding universal values that prompted inscription and the part they play in passing them on to future generations.\u00a0 Everyone, residents and visitors alike, shares the responsibility of this legacy and its conservation and sustainable development.\u00a0 Many projects have already been successfully brought to an end and just as many are in the pipeline in the different areas.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

If you\u2019d like to get involved, the UNESCO Dolomites Foundation would love to hear from you.<\/p>\n
