6. EUROPA NOSTRA
The Voice of Cultural Heritage in Europe
Europa Nostra represents some 250 non-governmental organisations, 160 associate
organisations and 1400 individual members from more than 50 countries who are fully
committed to safeguarding Europe’s cultural heritage and landscapes. Together, we
provide a powerful network for dialogue and debate, we celebrate the best heritage
achievements; we campaign against threats to vulnerable heritage buildings, sites and
landscapes, and we lobby for sustainable policies and high quality standards with
regard to heritage. More on www.europanostra.org
The Europa Nostra Annual Congress 2011
The Europa Nostra Annual Congress will on June 8-11 in the World Heritage City of Amsterdam,

Amsterdam with the participation of our President Plácido Domingo and the European Commissioner
for Education, Culture, Multilingualism, Sport, Media and Youth, Mrs Androulla Vassiliou. They will
jointly present the 2011 European Union Prize for Cultural Heritage / Europa Nostra Awards to the
deserved laureates who will come to Amsterdam from all over Europe.
Europa Nostra Newsletter, December 2010
The Newsletter informs readers about the latest news from our federation (policy issues, events, heritage
at risk etc). It also contains heritage related news of European interest. These include policy
developments, events and announcements from the European Institutions and European News from
Europa Nostra's member organisations. In this way, the Newletter strives to be a two way communication
platform to keep heritage professionals abreast of European heritage news.
Heritage in Peril
Europa Nostra campaigns side by side with its members, organisations and individuals, to oppose threats
to cultural heritage objects and sites from all over Europe. Saving endangered heritage, be they
monuments, buildings or landscapes, lies at the heart of Europa Nostra mission. EN aim to engage its
members, policy and decision makers at all levels of government and in all manner of businesses, as well
as the media and the public at large, in noticing the imminent danger so much of Europe’s cultural assets
face, and in joining in its actions to defend and protect these unique treasures which enhance the quality
of Europeans’ lives.

ever new cultural heritage treasures yet to be discovered. Or not?
