In the framework of "Strengthening capacities in the Comoros for safeguarding intangible cultural heritage for sustainable development", financed by the Abu Dhabi for Tourism and Culture Authority, a training on inventorying using a participatory video is organized.

This ten-day training on inventorying using a participatory video is organized and led by Unesco Facilitator M MOHAMED LEMINE BEIDJEU, the National Expert and Regional Director of CNDRS in Anjouan, M MISSOUBAHOUDDINE BEN AHMED and Creations NEXTEZ society.
The workshop is based on inventory methodologies and educational content developed by UNESCO and Creations Nextez. It gathers community representants from 3 islands, such as the NGOs MBENI NGOMA and Jeunes du Patrimoine des Comores, the Union des Associations de Moroni and staff members at branches of DGAC and CNDRS who are expected to reproduce the training in their own communities.
