On World Intangible Heritage Day, which falls on October 17 of each year, we celebrate a living heritage in which stories, songs, crafts, and customs preserve the features of Syrian identity, and are passed down from generation to generation.
Syrian heritage is replete with elements that have been inscribed on UNESCO’s human heritage lists, along with other elements under inscription, which reflects its richness, diversity, and authenticity, and stresses the importance of preserving and transmitting it. To future generations.
Heritage is not a past that we celebrate, but rather a living memory and a renewed identity.
