The conference of ICH NGO in 2020 is organized jointly by ICHCAP and ICH NGO FORUM. The conference will be held on 12 and 13 November 2020. The program of the international meeting will be broadcast live through the ICHCAP YouTube channel on both the first and second day.

The event takes place under the motto "ICH and resilience in crisis", and the purpose of the discussions is for participants to understand in depth the breadth, the role and challenges of ICH NGOs, especially in the field of education.

The purpose of the online forum is to better reveal the relationship between intangible cultural heritage and education in the field of sustainable development, enabling non-governmental organizations to find good practices and share useful experiences, informing about their activities.

The conference secretariat informed that despite the unexpected crisis of COVID-19, many non-governmental organizations continue to protect the intangible cultural heritage using various methods based on local experience.

The meeting aims to build new networks and strengthen already existing ones among the NGOs in the pursuit of sustainable human development.
