Welcome to the Culture in Crisis Portal

This free digital resource is a demonstration of the Culture in Crisis Programme’s ongoing commitment to protecting the world’s cultural heritage and supporting communities that suffer cultural loss, whether through Conflict, Criminal Acts or the impacts of the Climate Crisis.  

The programme works to bring together those with a shared interest in heritage preservation, developing an important forum for sharing information, supporting collective action and raising public awareness.  

Since its creation in 2019, the Portal has grown to become the world’s largest and most accessible database of cultural heritage preservation projects. It enables its users to quickly and easily register their preservation projects, as well as searching for those already in existence. 

Together we can learn from each other, share experiences and work to protect the world’s cultural heritage. 

To do this, we need your help.
