What is ACPA ?
The ACPA (Alliance of Independent Nations Cultural Protection Agency) will be a program of selection of places (such as a forest, mountain, lake, desert, monument, building, complex, or city) that has a special, uncommon cultural or physical significance in the different AIN countries.

What is the objective?
The objective of ACPA is to bold the cultural or physical places in order to provide to the AIN Citizens better education and cultural skills and knowledgement. Also, this will increase the Union activity and role-playing.

What is the selection criteria?
The selection criteria will be divided two criteria: the cultural one and the natural one. The selection criteria can be the same as the one for the real UNESCO, but we can also change it.

The Cultural one (as UNESCO):


(i) "represents a masterpiece of human creative genius"
(ii) "exhibits an important interchange of human values, over a span of time, or within a cultural area of the world, on developments in architecture or technology, monumental arts, town-planning, or landscape design"
(iii) "bears a unique or exceptional testimony to a cultural tradition or to a civilization which is living or which has disappeared"
(iv) "is an outstanding example of a type of building, architectural, or technological ensemble or landscape which illustrates a significant stage in human history"
(v) "is an outstanding example of a traditional human settlement, land-use, or sea-use which is representative of a culture, or human interaction with the environment especially when it has become vulnerable under the impact of irreversible change"
(vi) "is directly or tangibly associated with events or living traditions, with ideas, or with beliefs, with artistic and literary works of outstanding universal significance"

The natural criteria (as UNESCO):


(vii) "contains superlative natural phenomena or areas of exceptional natural beauty and aesthetic importance"
(viii) "is an outstanding example representing major stages of Earth's history, including the record of life, significant on-going geological processes in the development of landforms, or significant geomorphic or physiographic features"
(ix) "is an outstanding example representing significant on-going ecological and biological processes in the evolution and development of terrestrial, fresh water, coastal and marine ecosystems, and communities of plants and animals"
(x) "contains the most important and significant natural habitats for in-situ conservation of biological diversity, including those containing threatened species of outstanding universal value from the point of view of science or conservation"

Could be a place be declassified?
Every 6 months an update of the place will be required to see if the site stills corresponding with both, natural or cultural criteria. If the criteria does not corresponds with the site, a voting pool will be made to ensure if everyone agrees with disqualification of the place. It can be disqualified for this reasons:

i) Building structure in danger;
ii) Degradation of the building/site;
iii) Natural disasters that collapsed more than 60% of the site/building;
iv) War destruction;
v) Pollution index above of the limit;
vi) Human irresponsibility towards the heritage site;
