Daftar Situs Warisan Dunia di Oseania
A World Heritage Site is a location that is listed by UNESCO as having outstanding cultural or natural value to the common heritage of humanity.[1] The World Heritage Committee has designated 31 World Heritage Sites in Oceania. These are in 11 countries, with the majority of sites being located in Australia. The first three sites, the Great Barrier Reef, Kakadu National Park and the Willandra Lakes, were inscribed in 1981. The region also contains the world's largest sites: Phoenix Islands Protected Area and the Great Barrier Reef.[2][3]
Each year, the World Heritage Committee may inscribe new sites on the list, or delist sites that that no longer meet the criteria. Selection is based on ten criteria: six for cultural heritage (i–vi) and four for natural heritage (vii–x). Some sites, designated "mixed sites", represent both cultural and natural heritage. In Oceania there are 7 cultural, 19 natural and 5 mixed sites.[4] UNESCO may also specify that a site is in danger, stating "conditions which threaten the very characteristics for which a property was inscribed on the World Heritage List."[5] None of the sites in Oceania are officially classified as endangered by the Committee.[6]
List
Sites in Oceanic portions of Chile and the United States are included both in this list and in the list of sites in the Americas. Overseas sites of France and the United Kingdom included in this list are also repeated in the list of sites in Europe.
