unesco-heritage-mcp-server MCP Server

Fetch one biosphere reserve's full record by mab_id: its introduction, ecological and socio-economic characteristics, core, buffer, and transition areas (terrestrial and marine, in hectares) with resident population by zone, designation, extension, renaming, and periodic-review years, coordinates, and its UNESCO page.

Fetch one UNESCO Global Geopark's full record by ugg_id: its countries, designation year, transnational status, area and resident population as recorded, coordinates, UNESCO's introduction and description, its account of how the geopark sustains local communities, its own website, and its UNESCO page.

Fetch one Intangible Cultural Heritage element's full record by ich_ref: its description, the list it is inscribed on, the countries that share it, its inscription year, UNESCO concept terms, the World Heritage sites UNESCO links to it, its UNESCO page, and the main image with its caption and copyright credit. description_language fr returns UNESCO's French description instead of the English one.

Fetch one World Heritage site's full record by id_no: its description, statement of Outstanding Universal Value, each inscription criterion with its meaning (criterion (vi) marked as inferred), States Parties, coordinates, area, inscription and later years, Danger-list year, component parts, names in six languages, and the main image with its copyright credit. description_language returns UNESCO's French, Spanish, Russian, Arabic, or Chinese description instead of the English one. Intangible heritage UNESCO links to the site is listed by unesco_search_intangible_heritage with world_heritage_site.

List the vocabulary the other unesco_ tools accept and the coverage of the underlying datasets: the ten inscription criteria with their meanings and site counts, the countries in each dataset with their ISO alpha-2 and alpha-3 codes and record counts, the five UNESCO regions, the three intangible heritage lists, the MAB regional networks, and each dataset's record count, license, and data date. Set filter to narrow a topic to matching entries, for example a country name to find its code.

Search the World Network of Biosphere Reserves (UNESCO Man and the Biosphere Programme) by keyword, country, region, MAB regional network, designation year range, transboundary or Small Island Developing States status, or distance from a point. Every keyword must appear at the start of a word in the reserve's name, introduction, or ecological or socio-economic description; there is no biome or ecosystem field, so an ecosystem search is a keyword search such as mangrove or alpine. A country is an ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 or alpha-3 code. A transboundary reserve appears once per participating country, each with its own mab_id. Results page with next_cursor and carry facet counts over the whole match.

Search UNESCO Global Geoparks by keyword, country, designation year range, transnational status, or distance from a point. Every keyword must appear at the start of a word in the geopark's name, introduction, description, or account of how it sustains local communities, and name matches rank first. A country is an ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 or alpha-3 code and matches every geopark it takes part in, transnational geoparks included. Geoparks UNESCO recognized before the Global Geopark label existed are dated 2015, the year it was created. Results page with next_cursor and carry facet counts over the whole match.

Search UNESCO's Intangible Cultural Heritage lists — the Representative List, the Urgent Safeguarding List, and the Register of Good Safeguarding Practices — by keyword, country, list, inscription year range, multinational status, or linked World Heritage site. Every keyword must appear at the start of a word in an element's English or French name, its UNESCO concept terms, or its description, and name matches rank first. A country is an ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 or alpha-3 code and matches every element it shares, multinational elements included. world_heritage_site takes a site's id_no and lists the elements UNESCO links to it. Rows omit the description; read it with unesco_get_intangible_heritage_element. Results page with next_cursor and carry facet counts over the whole match.

Search the UNESCO World Heritage List by keyword, country, category (Cultural, Natural, Mixed), region, inscription criteria (i)–(x), inscription year range, Danger-list status, transboundary status, or distance from a point. Every keyword must appear at the start of a word in a site's name (any of six languages), description, or statement of Outstanding Universal Value, and name matches rank first. A country is an ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 or alpha-3 code and matches every site it shares, transboundary sites included. Set in_danger to true for the List of World Heritage in Danger; the data records the year of each site's current Danger-list entry but no threat factors. Criterion (vi) is inferred from each site's statement of Outstanding Universal Value and marked as inferred. Results page with next_cursor and carry facet counts over the whole match.
