Review of Egyptian Cultural Heritage Legislations in Perspective

This research investigates the cultural heritage legislation in Egypt and analyzes the textual laws and their effectiveness in achieving preservation and protection as well as ensuring the existence of a framework for managing cultural properties and achieving economic, social, and cultural benefits while emphasising preservation as a priority to transfer cultural heritage to future generations. Therefore, this study has adopted a qualitative method to classify different types of domestic laws related to cultural heritage and critically reviewed the literature to identify the issues and propose legislative amendments. The analytical content research method was used to develop a conceptual and legal framework for the management of heritage sites. While existing laws lay the foundation for protection, their effectiveness is hampered by enforcement issues, a lack of public participation, and insufficient adaptability to modern reality. Addressing these gaps will ensure that Egypt’s priceless history is preserved for future generations, concluding with recommendations.
