The 7 Most Endangered programme, launched in January 2013, is a civil society campaign to save Europe's endangered heritage. While not providing direct funding, it raises awareness, prepares independent assessments, proposes feasible action plans to mobilise public and private support. It is organised by Europa Nostra, the Voice of Cultural Heritage in Europe, and the European Investment Bank Institute. The programme is supported by the Creative Europe programme of the European Union.

It also takes into account the community engagement, the commitment of public and private stakeholders, the long-term sustainability and the socio-economic potential of the site.
