Summary

A new framework for interpreting UNESCO World Heritage Sites, including those with painful or contested histories such as the Hiroshima Peace Memorial (Genbaku Dome), is proposed. The study identifies key ethical and operational criteria to ensure respect for cultural diversity while aligning with international standards. By analyzing case studies like Auschwitz-Birkenau and Meiji Industrial Revolution sites, it highlights the complexities of interpretation when dealing with sensitive memories. This approach aims to guide future conservation efforts in a manner that balances universal values with local perspectives.
