ILL GIVE BRAINLIEST IF ANSWERED IN FULL AND CORRECTLY Honors Assessment

The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) is charged with preserving sites of specific historical, cultural and natural importance. To this end, it has devised a World Heritage List. It has nominated and granted protected status to hundreds of places across the world that are on this list. Many of these sites record the history of ancient and medieval peoples, such as those who built the kingdoms and empires of Africa.

Why should we protect and learn about the remains of cities such as Aksum and Great Zimbabwe? That is what you are researching and presenting in this honors assessment.

Review the content of the lesson. Then, visit the World Heritage List and other internet sites to learn more about the historical sites related to medieval African cities and kingdoms. You will create a public service announcement about three World Heritage sites. It will include why these sites are important and should be protected. A public service announcement is similar to a commercial whose purpose is to advertise and promote something.

2. Create your public service announcement. For each of the three World Heritage sites you chose, be sure to include:
a paragraph describing the site, including how it relates to the associated African city or kingdom
an image that you feel best represents the site
a paragraph explaining why the site is worth preserving
