The Slovene Ethnographic Museum, Coordinator for Intangible Cultural Heritage in Slovenia, published a new bilingual monograph Visualising Intangible Cultural Heritage in the European Year of Cultural Heritage, which also marks the 10th anniversary of Slovenia’s ratification of the UNESCO Convention for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage.

The book offers both a critical professional and academic insight into the visualisation of intangible cultural heritage—especially films accompanying nominations to UNESCO’s heritage lists—and practical guidance. Bearers, experts, and filmmakers can extract the latest UNESCO guidelines and visual ethnography recommendations for producing nomination films from the articles. It features 37 photographs of intangible heritage from around the world and is intended for heritage bearers and researchers, film authors and producers, photographers, those interested in methods of visualisation, and especially those engaged with the UNESCO safeguarding paradigm on local, national, and international levels.

This publication aims to introduce the general public to the key concepts, activities, and procedures related to the adoption of the UNESCO Convention for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage in 2003, its ratification in Slovenia in 2008, and its implementation in national legislation.

The publication also provides guidance for bearers interested in being listed in the Register of Living Cultural Heritage, as well as the conditions and procedures for possible future nominations.

The bilingual publication includes presentations of all elements of intangible cultural heritage that were entered into the Register of Intangible Cultural Heritage between 2008 and 2018. A total of 67 elements are presented through text and images.

The publication presents elements of intangible cultural heritage related to cuisine, which are listed in the Register of Intangible Cultural Heritage maintained by the Ministry of Culture.

The book was published in the year dedicated to celebrating the title Slovenia – European Region of Gastronomy 2021.

The Slovene-English publication presents all elements of intangible cultural heritage that were entered into the Register of Intangible Cultural Heritage between 2008 and the end of October 2021. A total of 96 elements are presented.
