Abstract (in English)

We are glad to record in this issues of the ICOMOS Scientific Journal dedicated to Africa, some of the meaningful steps that have been taken in recent times to sound the conscience of the nations of Africa. A number of get-togethers have been initiated by ICOMOS, often jointly with other Bodies and Member States, so that the common objective of monuments and sites and their preservation at World Heritage level, National level or even on a Sub National basis will promote appropriate values and mleaning to the peoples at their respective levels. we trist that the dissemination of such material in this issue of the journal will indicate to its readers the efforts made by ICOMOS in this regard and also to the participants the need for furthering similar interventions in differnt parts of Africa in order to carry the message of monuments and sites, and their preservation for the pride and joy of all nations and all mankind. [From the foreword by Roland Silva]
