This project is envisaged to be held in 2024. It will make the most of relevant success stories on the safeguarding of intangible cultural heritage that have proved effective in empowering women through sustained livelihoods and the intergenerational transfer of knowhow on living heritage of communities, in the Region and beyond. Women in West and Central Asia are bearers of valuable knowledge, professions, skills, and arts. They are the bearers of different forms of oral culture that has been continued and developed by themselves through time. The continuity of these forms of living heritage in today’s world, with a special focus on the role of women, is dependent on the part(s) that these forms of living heritage can play in sustained economic development of their bearer communities. Considering that the Region and beyond is abundant with such success stories, the proposed project can offer an opportunity to selected countries of the Region for empowering women.
