UNESCO defines that “heritage is our legacy from the past, what we live with today, and what we pass on to future generation.” Heritage is now regarded as the asset of future, not just as the memory of past. Today, in addition to the conservation of our heritage of humanity, the increasing efforts have been made to its educational and cultural utilization in many countries. In the legal instruments of UNESCO and some international organizations, cultural and natural heritages have been emphasized as the foundation of sustainable development, the sources of creativity, core of cultural and bio-diversity, symbol of peace and human right, and bridge of inter-cultural understanding. In particular, “world heritages” which are added every year by UNESCO's World Heritage Committee is the most valuable source for the inter-cultural understanding education. Following the strong recommendations at the international community, many UNESCO's associated schools have been actively participated in this project to provide the young children with the global perspectives on the social and political issues. As like the other countries, Korea also paid much emphasis on history education at the formal education level. However, Korea's approach is still confined within the limits of cultural property education, mainly focusing on history and art of properties. In views of the main objectives of world heritage education, Korea is not yet introducing the integrated educational methods for world heritage into the formal and nonformal educations. World heritages are the crucial educational sources for human right, climate change, environment, peace, dialogue and human respect. New educational initiatives should be urgently made to develop the teaching manuel and proper methods based on the integrated and holistic approach.
