Who Are the Real Stakeholders of a Nominated UNESCO Site? A Glimpse into the Contextualisation of a Rather Scientific Approach to World Heritage Nominations

Summary/Abstract: At the current time Romania, as a state, has set up a mechanism to implement the nomination procedure for the Dacian Limes on the UNESCO World Heritage List, as part of the FRE – Frontiers of the Roman Empire. While drafting the nomination and the management plan, the issue of different categories of stakeholders should be discussed and activities should be planned accordingly. In order to plan a series of activities a thorough analysis should be made, to establish who are the stakeholders of such an endeavour, when and how they should be addressed, what roles and responsibilities they have within the current process and within the management of the future World HeritageSite. This article is not meant to be an exhaustive approach to the subject, it is just the beginning of a deeper and more thorough study of the issue, bringing some examples of small-scale good practices, the lesson’s learned by other countries and raising questions to be answered in the future.
