Résumé en anglais
The Sustainable Development Goals Working Group (SDGWG) of the International Council onMonuments and Sites (ICOMOS) advocates for heritage by publishing reports, attending conferences
and engaging in networking. The SDGWG is particularly interested in how water, heritage andsustainable development intersect. Various aspects of this intersection are demonstrated by three
case studies of underwater cultural heritage: a study of submarine cables and pipelines, the traditionalfloating garden system of chinampas in Mexico City, and the indigenous water tanks of kulams
and gender-associated stepwells in India. This paper examines the current state of protection andadvocacy, while also discussing the challenges faced by water heritage. While significant challenges
remain, the SDGWG is developing solutions to ongoing and sometimes overlooked problems.
