All documentation must be accompanied by a non-exclusive grant of rights document granting worldwide rights to UNESCO to use the materials.
Grants of rights must be submitted in English or French, without any alteration of any kind to the text.
An original signed grant of rights must be submitted, in two copies. In many cases, the submitting State is the owner of the rights, and the signature should be that of an authorized official. In other cases, the photographer or videographer might retain ownership of the rights, and it is the responsibility of the State to secure his or her signature.
If a State submits materials from different rights-owners, a separate grant of rights should be prepared for each set of materials.
Grants of rights should also be transmitted in electronic format (standard .rtf, or .doc format), on CD-ROM or via the internet to: ich-nominations@unesco.org, so that the caption and credit information can be easily registered.
