This side event seeks to contrast the different initiatives carried out at the ministerial level, from the culture departments of different member countries of the group of friends for climate action and cultural heritage (founded at COP28), in relation to the conservation and preservation of cultural heritage in the face of the climate crisis. Along with our planet, cultural heritage is in serious danger and, in turn, can help us seek inspiration for adaptive strategies, in addition to being able to join mitigation strategies through the just transition. However the role of heritage does not end here, it can also generate climate awareness through heritage education.
