- UNESCO and Asahi organize event in Nara to promote intangible
cultural heritage
“The Future of Intangible Cultural Heritage” will
be celebrated on 8 August in the former Japanese capital Nara.
UNESCO and the Asahi Shimbun Company, publisher of one of the
leading Japanese daily newspapers, are organizing jointly a symposium
and an evening event to raise awareness among the general public
of intangible cultural heritage and the challenges of its safeguarding.
Some 500 people are expected to attend the afternoon symposium
where the Director-General of UNESCO, Koïchiro Matuura, and
the internationally renowned Vietnamese-born ethnomusicologist,
Tran Quang Hai, will discuss the crucial importance of safeguarding
intangible cultural heritage for the present and for the future
of society. The event is being organized within the framework
of a partnership agreement between UNESCO and Asahi to promote
intangible cultural heritage.
