| Description |
ICHCAP is unveiling a new online exhibition to promote the understanding of intangible cultural heritage (ICH) via an easily accessed online platform. We collaborated with ICH experts from the Pacific islands to curate seven exhibitions on Pacific cultural practices, including traditional knowledge, social rituals, and crafts. You can explore the Pacific islanders’ stories and culture online at the Google Cultural Institute under the title “ICHCAP Collection.” We hope the exhibitions will inspire others to get to know about Pacific ICH.
In this booklet, we showcase a small part of the exhibitions, covering
- Traditional Fire Walking in Fiji
- Palau’s Rich Heritage in Nature and Culture
- Safeguarding ICH of Papua New Guinea Bilum
- Ngatu, Culture Wealth of the Kingdom of Tonga
- Inspired Crafts of Samoa
- Pwo Ceremony, the Initiation Ritual for Traditional Wayfinding Systems
- Yam Festivals in the Pacific |
