UNSECO Intangible Cultural Heritage

UNESCO’s Intangible Cultural Heritage refers to practices, expressions, knowledge, and skills that communities, groups, or individuals recognize as part of their cultural identity. These include traditions like music, dance, storytelling, rituals, crafts, and festivals that are not physical objects but are vital to cultural diversity and social continuity. UNESCO works to identify, protect, and promote these intangible cultural elements to ensure they are preserved for future generations, fostering mutual understanding and respect across different cultures.
