Using web-semantics and graphic visualization, ‘Dive into Intangible Cultural Heritage’ proposes a broader conceptual and visual navigation through close to 500 elements inscribed on UNESCO’s Lists of the 2003 Convention. It explores the various elements across domains, themes, geography and ecosystems and makes it possible to visualize deep inter-connections among them (learn more on its conception).

The visualisations are constantly evolving as new elements get inscribed and the indexing is refined.

You can also browse the elements through listings.
