The UNESCO Convention for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage was ratified by the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea in 2008. To support the endeavor in safeguarding its rich intangible cultural heritage, UNESCO Beijing Office has been providing assistance in organizing a series of capacity-building workshops since 2010 including the National Safeguarding Awareness-Raising Workshop (2011) and Training Workshop on the Implementation of the 2003 Convention (2013).
