| Description | Education is very important in relation to ICH, as it is the means by which ICH is transmitted from generation to generation. Education is identified in the 2003 Convention as one of the aspects of safeguarding ICH. Education in relation to ICH may be formal or informal in nature. As stated in the 2003 Convention: Safeguarding means measures aimed at ensuring the viability of the intangible cultural heritage, including the identification, documentation, research, preservation, protection, promotion, enhancement, transmission, particularly through formal and non-formal education, as well as the revitalisation of the various aspects of such heritage1. | ||

USE OF FORMAL AND NON-FORMAL EDUCATION IN ICH SAFEGUARDING
The UNESCO 2003 Convention was adopted because of the need for safeguarding ICH and ensuring its safe transmission to future generations. While promotional activities allow increasing awareness about ICH among populations, formal and non-formal education ensures its sustainability as well as continuity. It is for this specific reason that the delivery of ICH-related knowledge and skills through formal and nonformal education plays one of the central roles in safeguarding efforts.

TRANSMITTING ICH IN THE CONTEXT OF INFORMAL, NON-FORMAL, AND FORMAL EDUCATION
Sustainability of Intangible Cultural Heritage in the modern world is very much dependent on transmitting ICH to present and future generations. This is acknowledged in the UNESCO 2003 Convention on the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage (2003 Convention). The purpose of this transmission is to produce inheritors and appreciators of ICH, without which ICH may fade away and eventually disappear. This transmission may be achieved through the channels of informal, non-formal and formal education, which I will discuss in relation to the case of education and training in batik cultural heritage in Pekalongan City, Indonesia, which was inscribed as a “best practice”1 for safeguarding ICH in 2009.
