| Summary: | Harmsen, H., Hagen, D. & Buschman, V.Q. 2022. Vulnerability assessment of selected key sites in Aasivissuit – Nipisat UNESCO World Heritage Area, West Greenland. Nipisat, Arajutsisut, Innap nuua & Itinnerup Tupersuai. NINA Report 2168. Norwegian Institute for Nature Research. This report details an assessment of vulnerability of the four key sites of Nipisat, Arajutsisut, Innap nuua and Itinnerup Tupersuai in West Greenland’s UNESCO Heritage Area, Aasivissuit – Nipisat, Inuit Hunting Ground Between Ice and Sea (inscribed 2018). The work was performed in August 2021 by researchers from the Greenland National Museum and Archives (NKA), Norwegian Institute for Nature Research (NINA), Greenland Institute of Natural Resources (GINR) and National Museum of Denmark. This current study is part of a broader effort to develop a suite of baseline data for identifying current ‘weak spots’ in the terrain and provide metrics by which changes to the cultural heritage, wildlife, and vegetation can be measured in the coming years. The data produced from this report will also facilitate the future drafting of Site-Specific Guidelines at these localities by informing tourists, cruise operators, and community members of the location of protected ancient cultural remains, vulnerable vegetation and sensitive wildlife in the area. This assessment serves as a prerequisite for ensuring Aasivissuit - Nipisat remains a unique and sustainable cultural landscape and that the area’s Outstanding Universal Values (OUV) are protected for the future.
