What are we today and what shall we be
tomorrow? Unfortunately, only future generations will answer
this question. But relentless of time is reality that creates values
and destroy them itself. And rather it destroys careless
values. Things changed a great deal since the Treasures of Mankind
were established, but unluckily not in a positive
direction.
It is unbearable for us to stand indifferent
towards this problem.
Having founded the World Heritage Preservation Fund, we are ready to prove with our deads,
that everybody is capable to take corcern both for the future of their
children and descendants and for the future of mankind. We don't speak about anything very far.
The first Russia' object, included in the World Heritage List
is the historical centre of St. Petersburg city with the whole complex of
monuments. Every person can play his possible role in
reconstruction of prominent historical and architectural treasures of our
remarkable city.
We hope that hard work of our colleagues
would be an essential contribution in combining efforts of mankind to fulfil our common job.
We feel more and more that we have to overcome nationalism and unite in order to
save treasures of our days.
It is well-known: there is no future without past.
The unique heritage of common values was
developed for centures. Every progressive person can proudly support and augment values
at prosper time, and take care of them at difficult
economic times. Leaders of successful enterprises and organizations,
businessmen and managers, who are covered today with financial problems, probably
could not help laughter at our seemed to be too abstract purpose.
But may be and they analyse that the origin of their well-being is
in common Mankind values?
We realize that not all people feel
that this problem is of the great importance. But having launched our
new ship and having started a great voyage, we
hope that very nice people would help us to hold seven feet under the keel.
And we believe that the idea to preserve the best values
of world heritage and save the "ethnological essence from extinction" would come
into reality.
