This report establishes the baseline for the municipalities of Bratislava, Camerino, Hamburg and Valencia, with respect to their selected cultural heritage sites. The ARCH project has a multi-dimensional thematic focus on 1) cultural heritage management, 2) disaster risk reduction and 3) adaptation to climate change, and as such all three dimensions are addressed in each city’s baseline review. The primary aim of this report is to introduce the scientific partners to the pilot cities, and specifically to their selected cultural heritage sites for further analysis in the context of ARCH. A secondary aim is, through the writing process, to equip the city partners (as lead authors) with expanded knowledge of the governance frameworks relevant to all three thematic areas mentioned.
