About Nomination Grand Pré Our Purpose This project aims to bring those with a connection to Grand Pré together to celebrate and steward the outstanding universal value that makes this place special and worthy of sharing with the world. We submitted a proposal for the nomination of Grand Pré as a World Heritage Site to UNESCO in February 2011. Our Logo
All these elements together unmistakably represent Grand Pré. Our Phrase “One land. Many stories. A shared legacy.” reminds us that Grand Pré is a place that is special for many peoples, from diverse backgrounds. Together, we celebrate and care for the land that unites us. Our Partnership An Advisory Board was set up to lead the project. It is co-chaired by the Société Promotion Grand-Pré and the Kings Community Economic Development Agency. It includes a number of people representing the local residents, the business community, the tourism association, the Marsh Body, the heritage community, the Acadian community, the Mi’kmaq, the three levels of government. The Steering Committee includes the co-chairs as well as the municipal planner, the project manager, and a representative of the provincial government. Their role is to carry out the day to day operations and make recommendations to the Advisory Board. In addition, Working Groups are set up to assist the project on technical matters. Currently two working groups were set up: one on the Outstanding Universal Value, which completed its work in January 2009, and another on the management of the proposed property. |
