7 Most Endangered Programme

The 7 Most Endangered Programme identifies endangered monuments and sites in Europe and mobilizes public and private partners on a local, national and European level to find a viable future for those sites.[1]

It was launched by Europa Nostra and the European Investment Bank Institute in January 2013.[2][3]

The 7 Most Endangered Programme is inspired by a successful programme of the US National Trust for Historic Preservation, based in Washington.[4] It does not provide funding. Its aim is to serve as a catalyst for action and raise awareness.[5]

Entries can be submitted by Europa Nostra’s country representations, member and associate organisations as well as by established public and private bodies active in the heritage field located in countries where Europa Nostra is not yet represented.

An international advisory panel, comprising specialists in history, archaeology, architecture, conservation and finance, meet to discuss over the applications and shortlist the most endangered monuments and sites. The board of Europa Nostra reviews the list[6] which is then publicly announced during an annual congress.

Rescue missions to the sites included in the final list are then organised and the sites are visited. The results and recommendations of the rescue missions are summarised in reports that become available on the organisation's website.[7]

gollark: Well, you've already said them, so it would be redundant to spend *ages* complaining.
gollark: I think it might actually crash if you don't connect it up to APIONET.
gollark: It's simple; just `git clone`, `python3 src/main.py`, realize that I don't list the dependencies you need or actually know them, `pip install --user` until it stops erroring, realize that you don't know what's meant to be in the config file, briefly complain about my use of TOML, grep for `util.config` and fill in stuff, ???, AutoBotRobot.
gollark: Maybe you should replace QB with ABR for now.
gollark: How exciting.
