| Resumen: | To ensure that Outstanding Universal Values (OUVs) are not compromised, control and monitoring mechanisms are needed for World Heritage management. This implies working with specific attributes and values that make conservation compatible with possible works at heritage sites. This paper aims to develop a methodology that can be used to systematically identify, order, evaluate and prioritise the attributes and values of World Heritage. This implies a review beyond inscription dossiers, policy and planning documents, and projects. The methodology has been tested in Alhambra, Generalife and Albayzín, particularly in the northern slope area. First, the categories of values and attributes are defined in a table from a transdisciplinary point of view. Second, the values and attributes of the OUV Statement are identified. Those that are relevant to the field of study are highlighted. Third, other documents at the national, regional and local levels are reviewed to determine the attributes and values identified by the management institutions. The resulting list of heritage attributes and values is very complex and highlights previously unrecognised issues, e.g., natural, ecological and landscape elements. Institutions can make recommendations for the management of heritage sites on the basis of this detailed identification. It will also provide a better understanding of the cultural significance of these sites and facilitate the assessment of their impact. |
