Abstract
Climate Change and anthropogenic activities are placing significant pressures on Underwater Cultural Heritage (UCH). There is currently limited understanding and preparedness for how these pressures are managed. This White Paper proposes a detailed policy and capacity development response centred on adaptation and mitigation planning coupled with global programmes of communication and engagement. It proposes an ecosystems-based approach towards the future management of UCH and advocates for a Nature/Culture framework for future governance.
