AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 hours ago

UNESCO World Heritage: UNESCO’s 48th World Heritage Committee session in Busan approved 25 new World Heritage sites, bringing the total to 1,273 across 173 countries. The big regional milestone for Africa and SIDS is the first-ever inscriptions for São Tomé and Príncipe (including its historic roças/plantations), alongside Comoros and South Sudan. Local governance & heritage: The committee also expanded and updated existing listings and placed several threatened sites on the “in danger” list, underscoring the push for stronger protection where conflict and instability threaten cultural and natural landmarks. Elections in São Tomé and Príncipe: The Constitutional Court officially declared President Carlos Vila Nova president-elect after the July 19 vote, confirming a first-round win. Diplomacy: China’s Xi Jinping sent congratulations to Vila Nova, pointing to continued momentum in China–São Tomé and Príncipe cooperation.
