At the Plenary Session of 16th and 17th October 2008, the regional councillors of the Centre region were made familiar with a communication by François Bonneau, President of the Conseil Régional and the Mission Val de Loire, introduced to the session by Agnès Thibal, Vice-President of the Centre region in charge of the Environment and Sustainable Development of the Loire.

 

This communication first of all recalled the characteristics and scope of the Val de Loire's registration on the World Heritage List, as well as the original tool for registration management implemented through the Charter of commitment. The State, local authorities and public players are concerned with the preservation and promotion of the site, acting in a wide range of fields such as the economy, in particular tourism, the environment and landscapes, education and culture. 
 
The communication assessed the 2002/2007 activities of the Mission Val de Loire, an operational device made up in the form of an inter-regional Mixed Trade Union consisting of the Centre and Pays de la Loire regions. This assessment was « fairly comprehensive and gives a good idea of the Mission's actions and unquestionable successes. » in the eyes of the Conseil Regional Economic and Social council (CESR) .
 
It also recalls, as stated by Agnès Thibal, Vice-president of the Centre region, that « six years after the Mission's creation, the two regional executives wanted to encourage a new dynamic », which is translated as the Mission Val de Loire's directions and priorities for the 2008 - 2010 period:
 
- The appropriation of the values of the registration by the Loire population:  
- The animation of the key players and the Authorities who have a responsibility towards the quality and preservation of the registeredVal de Loire;
- The support for organisations contributing to the international influence of the registered sites, in particular the Regions themselves .
 
« The registration of the Val de Loire in the World Heritage of Humanity is an extraordinary asset. The two regions of Centre and Pays de la Loire strongly wish to promote and preserve the natural and cultural elements in a vibrant and creative approach », insists François Bonneau in conclusion.
 
A determination that echoes the CESR view that states: « Respecting spaces means that the classified space and its neighbouring areas can take advantage of this international recognition without there being a confusion of image. Respecting time means knowing how to live from day to day with one's past whilst working towards and innovating for the future. »
