Survey of ICH in Ireland – UNESCO Periodic Report 2021

Survey of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Ireland

The Department of Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media is conducting a survey of Intangible Cultural Heritage (ICH) in Ireland. The objective of the survey is to obtain a clear picture of the important work undertaken by Ireland’s ICH practitioners and other key stakeholders in the field of ICH.

The responses received from the survey will help form the official response to a UNESCO periodic report on ICH in Ireland. The responses will also inform the development and direction of Department policy in respect of ICH over the coming 2-3 years.

Below are two surveys – one aimed at State Bodies and the other aimed at Community Groups/Individuals who are involved in Ireland’s Intangible Cultural Heritage (ICH). The Department invites you to participate by completing the survey that is relevant to you.
