Comprehensive Preservation Management Plan for Fujisan

Aiming to include Fujisan in the World Heritage List, the Comprehensive Preservation Management Plan for Fujisan was formulated in January 2012 to conserve the multiple assets as a single entity and to ensure that the outstanding universal value of the mountain was passed across to the next generation.

Furthermore, in line with the decision set forth by the 37th session of the World Heritage Committee, and with due consideration of the Vision and Strategies established by the Fujisan World Cultural Heritage Council in Dec. 2014, existing plans were revised in January 2016 to further promote the conservation management of Fujisan. A review of all plans of action, together with detailed processes, was also carried out.
