Entries are now being accepted for the 2012 UNESCO Asia-Pacific Awards for Cultural Heritage Conservation.

The 2012 Awards cycle marks a milestone for the programme, after successful implementation over the first twelve years. With support from the Macau Foundation, the Awards programme is now being enhanced to have even greater impact in raising awareness about exemplary practices in conserving heritage sites around the region.
