Cultural Heritage
Framework Programme

Without considering cultural heritage, the aims of the UN Ocean Decade cannot be met.

The Cultural Heritage Framework Programme (CHFP) is the only endorsed programme of the UN Ocean Decade focused on cultural heritage.

We assist and support all Decade actions that aim to include tangible and intangible cultural heritage in their recognised initiatives. Please join us!
