Kingdom of Saudi Arabia

Since 2019, the Ministry of Culture of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia supports the World Heritage Marine Programme in its work toward building a global network of leadership across World Heritage managers.

The support helped bring managers from the 50 marine World Heritage sites together in Glacier Bay, USA, for the 4th global marine World Heritage managers conference (4-9 September 2019). Managers gathered in a momentous setting to discuss challenges and solutions toward reaching the 2030 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.

The Ministry of Culture symbolizes the national and international advancement of culture in the Kingdom and plays an important role in delivering Saudi Arabia’s ambitious transformation programme, Vision 2030.
