The third session of the ICH Webinar was held
On July 30th, 2020, the third session of the ICH Webinar
was held. Thanks to the organization of the ICHCAP and

the online edition of the event presented ideas for implementation
of initiatives for cooperation and networking between
the universities in regard with the safeguarding of the
intangible cultural heritage by the regional networks - Africa,
Latin America, Europe, Asia and the Pasific region.
This session’s purpose is continuing the efforts for better
understanding of the integration between the intangible cultural
heritage and higher education which obviously meet
more and more difficulties in the present times. The COVID-
19 pandemic requires measures that affect the activity of the educational centers such as: closure of schools,
online teaching through online platforms and interruption of research work.
