UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage - XML

UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage is a system of cultural heritage registered and protected by countries based on the Convention for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage adopted in 2003. It targets intangible cultural assets such as traditional festivals, music, dance, craft techniques, and oral expressions that are passed down from generation to generation. There are three lists: the Representative List, the List of Intangible Cultural Heritage in Need of Urgent Safeguarding, and the Register of Good Safeguarding Practices, with participation from over 180 States Parties.
