class="wiki-text">Economic activities linked with the practice of living heritage can generate income for communities, groups and individuals concerned, and support livelihoods and decent work in the local economy. This can also support practice and transmission of living heritage, thus fostering safeguarding and social cohesion. However, communities have also experienced some negative impacts and identified possible risks associated with some kinds of economic activities. These can affect the viability of intangible cultural heritage and/or lead to inequitable benefit for communities. Many communities thus seek ways to maximize the positive effects of economic activities on living heritage safeguarding and sustainable development, while mitigating the potential negative impacts on the viability of living heritage. Other stakeholders could assist them in this process, while communities would continue to play the primary role in safeguarding their living heritage.</p> <figure class="photoBlock photoBlock-right"> <img src=" https://ich.unesco.org/img/photo/thumb/11014-MED.jpg" class="img-responsive" loading="lazy"/> <div class="photoBlock-legend-action"> <a class="popupFancyBox" data-fancybox-type="iframe" href="https://ich.unesco.org/en/photo-pop-up-00973?photoID=11014" title="" > </a> </div> <figcaption class="photoBlock-legend"> <div class="photoBlock-legend-content"> Kolo, traditional folk dance <a href="https://ich.unesco.org/en/RL/kolo-traditional-folk-dance-01270" class="link">Read more on the element</a><br />© Ethnographic Museum in Belgrade, 2011 </div> </figcaption> </figure> <p class="wiki-text"><strong>Towards the development of a Guidance Note</strong></p> <p class="wiki-text">In December 2019, the Committee of the UNESCO 2003 Convention for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage, requested that the Secretariat prepare a Guidance Note for communities, and States Parties concerning ‘the safeguarding measures and good practices that address the risk of decontextualization and over-commercialization of elements’ of intangible cultural heritage.
