Candidate World
Heritage Site
Draft Management Plan
What is a Management Plan?
The preparation of a Management Plan is a key requirement of the
nomination process for a World Heritage Site.
Through consultation with interested parties, partner organisations
and the local community, a Management Plan establishes the strategy
for conserving the outstanding universal value of a World Heritage
Site and for meeting the needs of visitors and other users. It is
not a statutory document, but an advisory framework for long-term
decision making in a World Heritage Site.
The Management Plan for Kew seeks to provide an agreed vision and
objectives for conserving Kew's rich architectural and landscape
heritage, and for managing the site to improve visitor and scientific
facilities.
To ensure that the Management Plan reflects the views of as many
stakeholders as possible, a wide range of people, including special
interest groups and local residents, were consulted on the
draft plan.
