Intangible heritage includes oral traditions, memories, languages,
traditional arts, rituals, knowledge systems, values and know-how;
it is the ancient knowledge, traditional knowledge and the
knowledge that inheres in poor and often marginalised communities -
knowledge that enriches our lives and must be safeguarded and
passed on to future generations. This monograph defines what is
meant by the term 'intangible heritage'. It then reviews the legal
and financial instruments developed by countries and international
bodies to manage these resources and analyses how they relate to
instruments that deal with intangible heritage. The authors
recommend ways that communities can safeguard their intellectual
property rights as well as how cultural policy-makers within
government and donor agencies can support communities by linking
development initiatives with arts and heritage.
