After the entry of the Round Yole of Martinique into the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity and the recognition by UNESCO of our entire terrestrial and marine territory as a World Biosphere Reserve, the classification as World Heritage of “Volcanoes and forests of Mount Pelée and the Pitons of northern Martinique”, a site that is one of the 35 global hotspots, was requested by France.
