Some information about the 7 Most Endangered Programme:  “It raises awareness, prepares independent assessments and proposes recommendations for action. It also provides a grant of €10,000 per listed site to assist in implementing an agreed activity that will contribute to saving the threatened site. In most cases, the listing of an endangered site serves as a catalyst and incentive for the mobilisation of necessary public or private support, including funding.”

The final list of the 7 Most Endangered Programme 2022 will be unveiled in the spring of 2022.
