Abstract: Recognising that the construction of large dams has also led to incalculable loss, destruction, and damage of cultural resources ranging from shrines of local communities to world heritage monuments, the objective of this report is to provide an overview of past and present cultural heritage management (CHM) in areas impacted by large dams, and to recommend internationally acceptable criteria and guidelines for the future cultural heritage management of dam impacted areas.
