“…Secondly, ICH outlives its creators, questioning the concept of ownership. Thirdly, transforming non-material heritage to tangible could potentially inhibit permutations of the same [19]. This approach also risks privatizing something that belongs to a community instead of a specific person [26].…”

“…This approach considers intangible cultural heritage more as a knowledge commons, meaning it is a resource that is shared by a group of people comprising communities. Inventorying heritage to its holders plays a big role in safeguarding community ICH, as long as policies are put in place for the prevention and deprecation of any discriminatory misconduct [19].…”

“…In other cases, intangible knowledge cannot even be taught at all. To overcome these problems, projects should be developed to answer educational needs and make it possible to transfer the knowledge commons to future generations [19]. Capturing and protecting intangible cultural heritage by using a mobile application makes it possible to store and transfer ICH to future generations.…”

“…Authoritarian governments, for instance, at different levels and degrees of influence, have been pointed at as determinant factors in either the conservation or the shunning of ICH [16]. Present-day is a time where the loss of this diversity and cultural identity plays a crucial role, as well as a time where intangible cultural heritage is threatened by the dispersal of communities, making its protection critical [19]. The safeguarding of these cultures including all of their practices, knowledge, skills, artistic expressions, craftsmanship, dance and performance arts responds to the need of strengthening cultural diversity [19].…”

Intangible Cultural Heritage is at a continuous risk of extinction. Where historical artefacts engine the machinery of intercontinental mass-tourism, socio-technical changes are reshaping the anthropomorphic landscapes everywhere on the globe, at an unprecedented rate. There is an increasing urge to tap into the hidden semantics and the anecdotes surrounding people, memories and places. The vast cultural knowledge made of testimony, oral history and traditions constitutes a rich cultural ontology tying together human beings, times, and situations. Altogether, these complex, multidimensional features make the task of data-mapping of intangible cultural heritage a problem of sustainability and preservation. This paper addresses a suggested route for conceiving, designing and appraising a digital framework intended to support the conservation of the intangible experience, from a user and a collective-centred perspective. The framework is designed to help capture the intangible cultural value of all places exhibiting cultural-historical significance, supported by an extensive analysis of the literature. We present a set of design recommendations for designing mobile apps that are intended to converge crowdsourcing to Intangible Cultural Heritage.

“…HUL offer many affordances for creativity -that is, to support the creativity of individuals and communities in the form of cultural interfaces; new roles of universities; cluster policy; and creative platforms like 'ideas labs' (Héraud, 2011). As a creative asset and economic resource, heritage re-connect people to their past in the sense of devising inclusive management practices to integrate old and new uses (Cominelli and Greffe, 2012;Ashworth and Voogd, 1986).…”

Affordances of Historic Urban Landscapes: An Ecological Understanding of Human Interaction with the Past

Heritage has been defined differently in European contexts. Despite differences, a common challenge for historic urban landscape management is the integration of tangible and intangible heritage. Integration demands an active view of perception and human-landscape interaction where intangible values are linked to specific places and meanings are attached to particular cultural practices and socio-spatial organisation. Tangible and intangible values can be examined as part of a system of affordances (potentialities) a place, artefact or cultural practice has to offer. This paper discusses how an ‘affordance analysis’ may serve as a useful tool for the management of historic urban landscapes.

The impact of cultural heritage listing on regional tourism development in China

Existing studies have shown that intangible cultural heritage (ICH) listing system promotes the development of the tourism economy. However, it remains unclear which regions benefit most from ICH listing due to inherent differences in ICH resource endowments across regions. We address this issue by examining the impact of ICH listing on regional tourism development using China's prefecture‐level panel data from 2000 to 2019. By employing a two‐stage least squares methodology, we address the endogeneity issue and identify which regions derive the greatest benefits from ICH listing. Our findings reveal that regions with higher cultural diversity have more ICH resources and benefit more from ICH listings, resulting in positive effects on domestic and international tourism. Additionally, tangible cultural resources further amplify this relationship. These results underscore the importance of ICH protection and provide valuable insights for policymakers and stakeholders seeking to leverage local ICH resources for regional tourism development.
