UNESCO Phnom Penh Office in close collaboration with the Ministry of Culture and Fine Arts will organize a workshop from 11 to 13 March 2019 in Siem Reap province on “The Status of the Intangible Cultural Heritage in World Heritage Sites of Cambodia”. Around 50 participants (Officers, experts, site managers, researchers…) from APSARA, Preah Vihear and Sambor Prei Kuk National Authorities and concerned Civil Societies, NGOs, communities and Provincial Departments of Culture and Fine Arts will be invited to join the workshop.
The main objective is to review the status of the Intangible Culture Heritage in the three World Heritage Sites: Documentation, Inventory, preservation measures and transfer of knowledge to younger generations. The recommendations for a regular network among the three national authorities and sustainable preservation and promotion of the Intangible Cultural Heritage will be established at the end of the Workshop.
