The charter was adopted at Riga in Latvia on 23 and 24 October 2000 at the Regional Conference on Authenticity and Historical Reconstruction in Relationship to Cultural Heritage, initiated by ICCROM[1][2]

The Riga Charter was composed by a scientific committee organised for that purpose during the Riga meeting.[1]
