The Director of the World Heritage Centre, UNESCO, Mr Francesco Bandarin, has recognized in a letter addressed to the Association, the importance of the safeguarding of New Gourna village and has just sent a mission on site at the beginning of this month. The Egyptian press has largely covered the mission.
