This document discusses guidelines for identifying and inventorying intangible cultural heritage. It defines intangible cultural heritage and explains that countries have an obligation to safeguard heritage within their territories. Inventories are an important safeguarding measure that can raise awareness of heritage and encourage creativity. While countries have flexibility in how they create inventories, communities must be involved in identifying heritage and any safeguarding measures. The goal of identification and inventorying is to support the ongoing transmission of intangible cultural heritage from generation to generation.
The analysis driven from the above research is that there are no profound laws made by any countries regarding the protection of their heritage culture.

E. Bryan - Traditional Knowledge Digital Repository - Considerations for Domi...Emerson Bryan
Description:
Traditional knowledge (TK) is knowledge, know-how, skills and practices that are developed, sustained and passed on from generation to generation within a community, often forming part of its cultural or spiritual identity. The Kalinago Barana Aute has been a fixture on the landscape of Waitukubuli for years, however, aside from the direct encounter with the indigenous peoples, physical access to the Council, and limited literary and artefacts within various repositories such as the Documentation Centre, the Dominica Museum or the Ministry of Kalinago Affairs in Roseau. However, there is a clear need to expand access to not just the physical artefacts accessible via these repositories, but also through the development of a specific resource to support the work of the Kalinago Council to revive, assist and maintain Kalinago traditions through song, dances, herbal medicine and some aspects of the ancient Kalinago language. Such a repository would support Dominica’s ratification of the UNESO Convention for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage, 2003. This support of a repository is especially critical for the continued survival of the Kalinago’s heritage, as the Commonwealth of Dominica is also a small island development state, and therefore has to remain competitive should it hope to realize the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs ), and especially under goals 11 and 13.
Also, the role and participation of indigenous peoples such as the Kalinago in global concerns such as traditional medicine, oral tradition, climate change, disaster risk reduction, tourism and sustainable development require great access to resources, including in cyberspace, to drive awareness of the Kalinago, as well as provide access to perspectives specific to Dominica, and the rich cultural heritage of these indigenous people .
Objectives:
The presentation will:
• Introduce some definitions on the subject of traditional knowledge
• Discuss the global and regional initiatives aimed at addressing traditional knowledge
• Consider some “Implementable” current best practices for developing a TK Repository
• Describe some necessary stages which must be considered for a proposed Kalinago TK Repository
The present essay review, though shorter than the piece I am accustomed to write, focuses on the commonalities between tourism and archaeology. At acloser look, we aretaught tourism is a commercial activity, sometimes hedonist or naïve that entertains lay people. Rather, archaeology signals to a serious academic discipline, enrooted in the quest for truth. Nonetheless, archaeology and tourism shares the similarly-minded cultural values, the reconstruction of
past. Our thesis rests on the idea that the tourist gaze searches for the ideological message to remind its superiority over other cultures or peripheral voices. In addition, it is important to note that tourists and archaeologists need from the same degree of exceptionality and novelty to validate their status to others.

This report by the UN Special Rapporteur on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples examines the human rights situation of indigenous peoples in Namibia, particularly the San people. It finds that while Namibia has made progress since independence, indigenous groups still face disadvantages related to land rights, participation in decision-making, education and health access. Key issues include insecure land tenure for San communities, lack of consultation in decision-making, educational disparities, and health problems linked to poverty and lack of access to traditional lands and resources. The report makes recommendations to strengthen land rights, increase indigenous participation, improve education programs, and address structural health factors.

The convention takes a flexible approach, with few obligations or definitions. It emphasizes the role of communities in identifying, inventorying, and safeguarding their own intangible cultural heritage through transmission, awareness-raising, and other measures.
Safeguarding our Heritage for our Grandchildren - Can UNESCO help?InfoAndina CONDESAN
UNESCO tools like the World Heritage Convention and the Convention for Safeguarding Intangible Cultural Heritage aim to protect cultures that are threatened by globalization. The World Heritage Convention recognizes culturally and naturally significant sites, but communities have limited involvement in nominations. Intangible cultural heritage like traditions, crafts and rituals are also under threat without recognition. UNESCO's work highlights the importance of cultural diversity and community participation in safeguarding heritage for future generations.
The importance of preserving intangible cultural heritage in combating the negative consequences of Globalisation.
“The bulk of the world’s current problems stem from a detachment from traditional cultures. This culture, knowledge and experience must be protected at all costs. It is the only hope for sustainability of cultural identity while allowing modern development.” UNESCO 2009
We share cultural expressions that have been passed from one generation to another. Safeguarding living heritage is vital to sustaining a community’s innate creativity and sense of identity.
An understanding of the intangible cultural heritage of different communities helps with intercultural dialogue, and encourages mutual respect for other ways of life. The importance of intangible cultural heritage is not the cultural manifestation itself but rather the wealth of knowledge and skills that is transmitted through it from one generation to the next.
The global wealth of traditions has become one of the principal motivations for travel, with tourists seeking to engage with new cultures and experience the global variety of performing arts, handicrafts, rituals, cuisines and interpretations of nature and the universe.
Fostering the responsible use of this living heritage for tourism purposes can provide new employment opportunities, help alleviate poverty, curb rural flight migration among the young and marginally employed, and nurture a sense of pride among communities.

Aila re naya daman folksong belongs to whomM S Siddiqui
Copyright protection is one such important and strong protection guaranteed under intellectual property laws. The expressions of folklore are undoubtedly a product of human genus and intellect and hence deserve adequate protection under the fast-growing system of intellectual property rights laws.

Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

4. Safeguarding without freezing
To be kept alive, intangible cultural heritage must
be relevant to its community, continuously
recreated and transmitted from one generation to
another.There is a risk that certain elements of
intangible cultural heritage could die out or
disappear without help, but safeguarding does
not mean fixing or freezing intangible cultural
heritage in some pure or primordial form.
Safeguarding intangible cultural heritage is about
the transferring of knowledge, skills and meaning.
Transmission – or communicating heritage from
generation to generation – is emphasized in the
Convention rather than the production of
concrete manifestations such as dances, songs,
musical instruments or crafts.Therefore, to a large
extent, any safeguarding measure refers to
strengthening and reinforcing the diverse and
varied circumstances, tangible and intangible, that
are necessary for the continuous evolution and
interpretation of intangible cultural heritage, as
well as for its transmission to future generations.
Safeguarding measures to ensure that intangible
cultural heritage can be transmitted from one
generation to another are considerably different
from those required for protecting tangible
heritage (natural and cultural). However, some
elements of tangible heritage are often associated
with intangible cultural heritage.That is why the
Convention includes, in its definition of intangible
cultural heritage, the instruments, objects,
artefacts and cultural spaces associated with it.
Does this mean that intangible heritage should
always be safeguarded, or be revitalized at any
cost? As any living body, it follows a life cycle and
therefore some elements are likely to disappear,
after having given birth to new forms of
expressions. It might be that certain forms of
intangible cultural heritage, despite their
economic value, are no longer considered
relevant or meaningful for the community itself.
As indicated in the Convention, only intangible
cultural heritage that is recognized by the
communities as theirs and that provides them
with a sense of identity and continuity is to be
safeguarded. By‘recognition’, the Convention
means a formal or, more often, informal process
by which communities acknowledge that specific
practices, representations, expressions, knowledge
and skills and, if appropriate, associated
instruments, objects, artefacts and cultural spaces,
form part of their cultural heritage.
Safeguarding measures must always be developed
and applied with the consent and involvement of
the community itself. In certain cases, public
intervention to safeguard a community’s heritage
may be undesirable, since it may distort the value
such heritage has for its community. Moreover,
safeguarding measures must always respect the
customary practices governing access to specific
aspects of such heritage, for example, sacred
intangible cultural heritage manifestations or those
that are considered secret.
Inventories: identifying for safeguarding
The Convention is a permissive document and
the majority of its articles are worded in non-
prescriptive language, allowing governments to
implement it flexibly. However, drawing up
inventories is one of the specific obligations
outlined in the Convention and in the
Operational Directives for its implementation.
Inventories are integral to the safeguarding of
intangible cultural heritage because they can
raise awareness about intangible cultural
heritage and its importance for individual and
collective identities. The process of inventorying
intangible cultural heritage and making those
inventories accessible to the public can also
encourage creativity and self-respect in the
communities and individuals where expressions
and practices of intangible cultural heritage
originate. Inventories can also provide a basis for
formulating concrete plans to safeguard the
intangible cultural heritage concerned.
According to Article 11 of the Convention, each
State Party is required to take the necessary
measures to ensure the safeguarding of the
intangible cultural heritage present in its territory
and to include communities, groups and relevant
NGOs in the identification and definition of
