Disaster as Opportunity
While acknowledging the terrible impacts of disasters and epidemics on lives, livelihoods, property and landscapes, they are also important moments or watersheds in the transmission of living heritage. Modelling how transmission operates, and understanding the importance of the three-way relationship between communities, materials and knowledge, or “people, place and story”, allows us to appreciate how living heritage can mediate and mitigate the effects of disasters and epidemics. Christopher Ballard, Professor of The Australian National University reflects on the connection between ICH and Disasters. ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR CHRISTOPHER BALLARD is a historian but trained as an archaeologist and anthropologist. He has thirty years of experience as a researcher in Melanesia (PNG, Vanuatu, West Papua and New Caledonia). His research interests revolve around indigenous Melanesian historicities - their transformation through crosscultural encounters; their representation through various media, including film and fiction; and their articulation with contemporary challenges such as land reform, large natural resource projects, and cultural heritage management planning. Currently, he is a Senior Fellow at the School of Culture, History & Language of The Australian National University.

The sudden emergence of Covid19 pandemic dramatically impacted world systems. In the Philippines, the national government imposed the enhanced community quarantine (ECQ) and grappled with ways and means to contain the transmission of the disease and sustain the lives in communities. It promulgated the Bayanihan Heal as One Act which allowed local government units (LGUs) a latitude of protocols to implement in the town level. In the Mt. Province of the northern Cordillera Region, communities had been practicing community quarantine popularly called teer or tengao, the compulsory “rest” day according to different needs and contexts. Eric Zerrudo shares the study of Teer/Tengao, which was one of highly contextualized practice that emerged as an integral experience for a specific construct of ICH in the COVID 19. ASSOC. PROF. ERIC BABAR ZERRUDO is the Director of the University of Santo Tomas Center for Conservation of Cultural Property and the Environment in the Tropics (CCCPET) and faculty of the Graduate School-Cultural Heritage Studies program.
