Education et culture

Adoption of the World Heritage site's values and improvement of its management are in part achieved by training the stakeholders at the different territorial levels. How can a training programme be planned in terms of trainees and training leaders? How can its content be designed? How can extensive involvement be achieved, on the part of all local stakeholders and populations alike?

To know...

Le public de la formation doit être ciblé précisément pour garantir l’efficacité de la formation.
L’offre de formation doit être calibrée en fonction des contraintes statutaires et professionnelles du public.
La méthode, la pédagogie et les contenus de la formation doivent privilégier une démarche vivante, au-delà du formalisme attaché à la Valeur Universelle Exceptionnelle (VUE).
Les activités de formation doivent permettre le partage d’une éthique commune vis à vis de la VUE.

How to ?

Heritage training within the World Heritage Site must enable local stakeholders to acquire sound knowledge of the heritage components, not least the Outstanding Universal Value (OUV), and to build their capacity to put the aims of the management plan into practice.

Become familiar with the baseline documents

View the video presenting the OUV (available soon)

Identify the training requirements

Consult the training contractors and supervisors
Examine the specific status of the target stakeholders and their right to training
Find out more about the right to training in the occupational sectors concerned
Enquire about the local measures for training support and the time dedicated to training (particularly for tourist information centre guides or speakers)

Design and tailor the training scheme

Tailor the training duration and content to the professional practices, requirements and expectations of the target group
Particularly tailor the content bearing on the OUV, in keeping with professional practices
Ensure strict management of registrations in terms of number of places, dates and duration
Set up a training assessment tool
