Joining the important mission of commemorating the centenary of the Armenian Genocide, ICOMOS/Armenia will also implement a number of events, taking into account the fact that in the result of Genocide heritage was lost. A significant part of the monuments, thousands of churches, monasteries, religious and secular values of the architectural heritage, being in Western Armenia /Turkey/,were completely destroyed and damaged during the evacuation and massacres of Armenians.
An exhibition will be organized in April ,dedicated to the lost and damaged heritage because of the Genocide, where the monuments of Western Armenia will be exhibited. Lectures will be held in Republic of Armenia and beyond its borders especially on the preservation of the Armenian heritage in Western Armenia.

ICOMOS-ICAHM will organize the conference Archaeological Park as World Heritage Site – A Management Strategy for the Future, at Salalah, Oman.
The essential value of any archaeological site is dependent upon the degree to which its archaeological materials are kept intact and in context. Because of this, access to archaeological sites is restricted to government authorities and approved researchers in many countries. In a World Heritage setting, however, an archaeological site becomes public space, one that simultaneously promotes and threatens its scientific and historic value. The focus of this conference will be the sustainable management of archaeological World Heritage Sites through negotiating these tensions in planning, inventory and evaluation, facility construction and operation, building management capacity, and inclusion of local stakeholders.
