Learn about urban cultural landscapes and World
Heritage through

Carioca Landscapes between the Mountain and the Sea. Mechtild Rössler, PhD., director, UNESCO Division for Heritage and
World Heritage Centre, and Patricia M.
O’Donnell, FASLA, AICP, F.US/ICOMOS, principal, Heritage
Landscapes, explain how the 1073 World Heritage sites incorporate cultural

city like Rio. A reception follows the program.
