Archaeological heritage sites across the Mediterranean are increasingly threatened by climate change, urban pressures, and geopolitical instability. This paper presents the first results of the Tyre WHS (Lebanon) case study within the ongoing doctoral research examining management and conservation plans for Mediterranean archaeological WHS at risk from climate change. Tyre is currently exposed to both environmental hazards and the impacts of ongoing armed conflict. The study evaluates existing conservation strategies, focusing on sea-level rise, material deterioration, and the use of geospatial technologies for monitoring and risk assessment. The case highlights the need for adaptive conservation approaches integrating climate resilience, heritage management, and community engagement.
