The Organization of World Heritage Cities (OWHC) brings together cities around the world that host UNESCO World Heritage sites.
Founded in Fez, Morocco, the OWHC promotes urban heritage as a force for cultural exchange, sustainability, and inclusive city life. Through collaboration and global dialogue, it helps historic cities stay not only preserved, but vibrant and evolving. Learn more on our website www.ovpm.org

About the Young Travelling Scholarship
The YTS invites young people to explore World Heritage Cities and share their stories creatively. Launched by the OWHC’s Regional Secretariat for Northwest Europe and North America, the program supports independent travel and personal reflection on cultural heritage.
By amplifying youth voices, YTS builds bridges between generations and cities — showing that heritage is not just about preservation, but participation and fresh perspective.
