About the CPD 活動簡述:
This CPD talk will explore the multifaceted issues surrounding the connections between Intangible Cultural Heritage (ICH) and tangible heritage safeguarding, drawing comparisons between local and global perspectives.
The session will serve as a culmination of the CPD series on ICH, emphasizing the importance of raising awareness and fostering cultural heritage for sustainability. The speaker will highlight the issues of ICH and how it impacts the conservation approach of tangible heritage in both local and global contexts. It will cover a brief introduction of the ICH concept and the ICOMOS Charter and Guidance on Sites with Intangible Cultural Heritage, and illustrate with selected case studies that provoke conservation practices that address living heritage intrinsically linked with heritage sites.
