A nomination workshop will be held from 10 to 14 December 2012 in Bagamoyo, United Republic of Tanzania. It will be organized by UNESCO Office in Dar es Salaam jointly with the Ministry of Information, Youth, Culture and Sports in Tanzania.

25 participants are expected, selected from the list of people trained on the community-based inventory workshop in February 2012. The participants should be able to identify an element and develop a sample file for nomination, including the strategy for the participation of the community and a safeguarding plan for the identified element.
