The Electoral Board is pleased to present the list of the eligible candidates for the 2023 elections of the Intangible Cultural Heritage NGO Forum Executive Board, for the following seats:

We would like to thank all the candidates for their interest and participation.

Monday 4 and 11:00 am on Wednesday 6 November 2023. The ballot will be sent by email to the person with signing authority

Otherwise, the vote will be canceled.
