-Properties may thus be understood to meet the conditions of authenticity in their cultural values.
-Truthfully and credibly expressed through a variety of attributes, including:
• Form and design • Materials • Use and function • Traditions, techniques and management systems • Location & setting • Language & other forms of intangible heritage • Spirit and feeling
(Nara document,1994)

Integrity ‘wholeness and intactness’ of the heritage property and how it conveys the values it holds.
Integrity can also relate to the size of the property (sufficient size to continue to represent the values)
and to any threats affecting the property (will the values continue to exist?).
![Page 26: UNESCO’s World Heritage List: an analysis of how to draft ... · -protected for future generations World Heritage List ... •Develop policy •Prepare a management plan ... -natural](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060512/5f2accbd6bc30d732c46d9fd/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
All properties inscribed on the World Heritage List must have adequate protection and management mechanisms in place.
How a country chooses to protect and manage its properties can vary, so long as it does so effectively.
