Call for Nominations for the 7 Most Endangered Programme 2022 open: Why and how to apply?

All over Europe, cultural heritage is threatened by neglect, lack of funds, unsuitable development, conflicts or due to a series of other natural, human-related or climate change causes.

Do you happen to know an endangered heritage gem in Europe – such as an historic monument or an ensemble of historic monuments, an archaeological site, a place of worship, an industrial complex, a historic park, a museum, a movable or an intangible heritage asset? Then nominate it for the 7 Most Endangered programme 2022!

Launched in 2013 and currently in its 6th edition, the 7 Most Endangered Programme is a civil society campaign to save Europe’s endangered heritage. It raises awareness, makes independent expert assessments, proposes recommendations for action and seeks to rally support to save the selected endangered sites. Being on the 7 Most Endangered List often serves as a catalyst for positive change and as an incentive for mobilisation of the necessary public or private support. Moreover, the 7 Most Endangered Programme includes the possibility for the seven selected sites to be eligible for an EIB Heritage Grant of up to 10.000 euros to start the implementation of actions, studies or assistance measures for the threatened site.

The 7 Most Endangered Programme is run by Europa Nostra – the European Voice of Civil Society committed to Cultural and Natural Heritage – in partnership with the European Investment Bank Institute. It also has the support of the Creative Europe programme of the European Union.

Who can nominate?

  • Europa Nostra’s Country Representations, Member and Associate Organisations (see full list)
  • Public and private bodies active in the heritage field located in countries where Europa Nostra is not yet represented
  • Member organisations of the European Heritage Alliance
  • Individual members of Europa Nostra

Read the Call for Nominations, fill in the Nomination Form and email it to Sara Zanini, Programme Coordinator (sz@europanostra.org). Submit your nomination by 17 September 2021!
