Nominations are proposals by state parties to inscribe new sites on the World Heritage List. IUCN evaluates all nominations with natural components. IUCN’s evaluations are released by UNESCO's World Heritage Centre ahead of the Committee meeting in two dispatches (main document and Addendum), with the first one released in early June and the second in mid-June.
The natural and mixed sites nominated for 2020 and 2021 are listed below, alphabetically by country. IUCN's evaluations are available in English and French in the following downloadable document.
