     The Organization of World Heritage Cities (OWHC) is an international organization with a network of members including cities with cultural heritage recognized by UNESCO as World Heritage Sites. OWHC was established in 1993 with its headquarters located in Quebec City, Canada. With the participation of more than 300 member cities, OWHC's goal is to support cities in improving the quality of heritage management and conservation through the exchange and sharing of knowledge and related information, towards the development for World Heritage cities. Becoming a member of the OWHC may bring many practical opportunities for Hoi An city to develop cooperative relationships, to share expertise and experience with other heritage cities, and to be accessible to updated programmes/projects in the field of cultural heritage management and conservation.
