They symbolise a shared wealth owned by all people in the world, that have been passed to us by our ancestors and which is our responsibility to hand over to the future generations. - Cultural Heritage:
Cultural Heritage is an expression of the ways of living, developed by a community and passed on from generation to generation, including customs, practices, places, objects, artistic expressions, and values. Cultural Heritage is often expressed as either Intangible or Tangible Cultural Heritage.
