A film and an exhibition to celebrate the Mediterranean intangible cultural heritage

14 September 2012

The development of a film scenario and of a photography exhibition around the Mediterranean intangible cultural heritage was at the core of a meeting involving Egyptian, Lebanese and Jordanian producers and photographers on the 27th to 29th august 2012, at UNESCO Paris. The ultimate stage of the MedLiHer project (Mediterranean living Heritage), co-financed by the European Union and UNESCO, the premiere of the film projection and the exhibition are foreseen for late December 2012 in Paris. The audiovisuals on the intangible cultural heritage can help to sensitize larger public, in particular the youth, on its importance in today’s world. That’s the challenge the image experts have set themselves for their contribution to the safeguarding of living heritage in their countries and beyond.
