| Description | ICHCAP, in collaboration with UNESCO Bangkok Office, held the Intangible Cultural Heritage Webinar Series from June to August 2020 with a total of four sessions. The 23 speakers from 18 countries met with the public to grapple with alternative practices and emergent modes of delivery in various areas such as heritage education in the universities, networking amongst educational institutions for ICH safeguarding, development of ICH curricula in times of crisis, as well as inter-regional cooperation for cross-cultural instruction and learning. While the entire world is struggling with the impacts of the COVID-19, the ICH sector also has been hit hard by numerous public health measures such as the cancellation of major festivals and events, temporary shutdown of museums, and places of cultural activities, as well as the indefinite halting of formal and informal heritage transmission activities. How can ICH safeguarding and transmission thrive in the midst of an unprecedented pandemic, and what role can higher education institutions play to ensure the viability of living heritage in our times? ICHCAP organized this webinar series to answer these urgent questions that we all face today. In the second session on 2 July 2020, the focus was to have a more detailed grasp of cultural heritage education in universities and how relevant academic programs can be conducted with respect to the “new” normal or a set of behaviors we now have to practice to maintain public health safety.

Pedagogy for ICH and the COVID-19 Pandemic
While we seem to have been prepared for a critical pedagogy for ICH including both the challenges and opportunities ICH education may pose for teaching learning, it seems we actually took for granted so many of our assumptions as well. Neel Kamal Chapagain draws some implications for our future pedagogy in terms of making it flexible through this presentation. NEEL KAMAL CHAPAGAIN is the Director of Centre for Heritage Management, Ahmedabad University – a centre dedicated for advancing critical but holistic education on heritage management in the Asia-Pacific region. An architect by training, a native of Nepal, Professor Chapagain is interested in deeper issues of education and engaged in exploring contextual learning at all levels of education.

Challenges and Opportunities for Teaching ICH as a Core Knowledge Requirement and Practice within Heritage Education
A competencies framework for cultural heritage management in Asia and the Pacific has been recently developed by the UNESCO Regional Office (Bangkok) with the help of many partners and contributors. While it is acknowledged that some people will be knowledge bearers themselves, and others will have highly specialized disciplinary knowledge and skills in ICH, it also sets out the ICH competency expected at other ‘levels’ of work in heritage management. Alongside this work, an important network of Universities and other Higher Education institutions in the region involved specifically in ICH was formed in 2018, recognizing that the University sector has a role to play in fostering ICH competencies. Surveys by ICHCAP and other institutions has demonstrated that higher education teaching and learning in ICH is provided in diverse programs across the region, and should be strengthened. And in 2020, our thinking about strategies to enhance ICH teaching in the region has been greatly affected by the many impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. In this context, Kristal Buckley shares her experience on education in the field of intangible cultural heritage focusing on heritage education with digital literacy responding to pandemic. KRISTAL BUCKLEY AM is a Lecturer in Cultural Heritage at Deakin University (Melbourne, Australia). She has professional qualifications in archaeology, anthropology and public policy, and has worked in private practice, government, teaching and research. Her work has a focus on World Heritage, naturecultures, and urban landscapes. Ms. Buckley served as an international Vice-President of ICOMOS from 2005-2014, and works as an ICOMOS World Heritage Advisor.

Cultural Heritage and COVID-19: Digital Technologies to Support New Forms of Resilience
In an unexpected circumstance, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, cultural heritage content cannot be suspended, but must be delivered online, relying on the available digital technology. On the one hand, cultural artifacts will remain physical artifacts delivering tangible value. On the other, this tangible value is increasingly enhanced by digital technologies, calling for new perspective on innovation. Among the various digital enabling technologies being considered in the digital transformation of cultural institutions, digitization and connectivity have been associated with new possibilities and opportunities for innovation in general and for search and recombination of cultural content in particular. What has often been missing is the systematic consideration of digitization and connectivity as forces that not only creates opportunities but also changes the organizational variables that might affect some of the built-in assumptions in the extant innovation management literature. Danilo Pesce explains digital technologies to support new forms of resilience during the COVID-19. DANILO PESCE is a postdoctoral research fellow at Politecnico di Torino (Turin, Italy) and a visiting scholar at Cass Business School (London, UK). His research interests are mainly focused on the organizational and industry-level changes triggered by digital technologies adoption.
