Based on the theme of 2003 Convention and ICH inventorying under the framework of capacity building, the workshop covered topics on concepts, processes and methodologies of inventorying, ways to making working plans of recording and inventorying, setting budgets and other fundamental tasks. Trainees also paid a one-day field visit to the heritage base of hansan mosi and the Hansan Mosi Museum in Seocheon. With the help of two facilitators and community representatives, trainees interviewed inheritors and practitioners of the ICH project hansan mosi. By audio recording and photographs, trainees recorded the history, recent development, distinguishing features and inheritance condition of hansan mosi.
