Opening Ceremonies
The 33rd World Heritage Committee meetings opened in style last night in Sevilla Spain.
Afterwards a grand dinner was served in the courtyard of the FIBES conference centre. Check out the pictures below.
I sat with representatives from Germany, Italy and Greece. Will shared a table with the delegations from Spain, Madagascar and Brazil.
It was great to talk to different nationalities about the concerns we have for the Waterton-Glacier site. Most everyone was surprised to learn that Canada is considering mines in the headwaters of a World heritage site.
