UNESCO Intangible Heritage

UNESCO Intangible Heritage refers to the practices, skills, knowledge, and traditions that communities, groups, or individuals recognize as part of their cultural identity. This includes things like oral traditions, performing arts, social practices, rituals, festivals, and craftsmanship. Unlike physical monuments or artifacts, intangible heritage is about living expressions that are passed down through generations. UNESCO works to identify, protect, and promote these cultural practices to ensure they are preserved and remain vibrant for future generations, fostering cultural diversity and understanding worldwide.
