The Working Group on Cultural Heritage, chaired by Mexico, looks at both tangible and intangible heritage. The role of cultural heritage within the larger cultural and social agenda has been acknowledged by many international organizations. Cultural heritage can be loosely defined as an aspect of cultural diversity, a touchstone of identify, a source of income and employment, and a form of cultural capital. The effective management of cultural heritage can help to reduce poverty, promote social inclusion, and increase civic participation. Intangible heritage, defined as a combination of knowledge systems, customs, traditions and symbols manifested in languages, music, dance and performing arts, festivals, rituals and legends, is of particular interest to INCP member countries. 1, record 3, English, - Working%20Group%20on%20Cultural%20Heritage

Le Groupe de travail sur le patrimoine culturel, présidé par le Mexique, veille au patrimoine matériel et immatériel. Un grand nombre d'organisations internationales ont reconnu le rôle du patrimoine culturel au sein du vaste programme culturel et social. On peut en gros définir le patrimoine culturel comme un aspect de la diversité culturelle, la pierre de touche de l'identité, une source de revenus et d'emploi et une forme de capital culturel. Le gérer efficacement peut contribuer à réduire la pauvreté, à promouvoir l'inclusion sociale et à accroître la participation communautaire. Le patrimoine immatériel, défini comme étant une combinaison de systèmes de connaissances, de coutumes, de traditions et de symboles qui se manifestent par la langue, la musique, la danse et les arts du spectacle, les festivals, les rituels et les légendes, intéresse particulièrement les pays membres du Réseau international sur la politique culturelle (RICP). 1, record 3, French, - Groupe%20de%20travail%20sur%20le%20patrimoine%20culturel

El Grupo de Trabajo sobre Patrimonio Cultural, presidido por México, se ocupa tanto del patrimonio tangible como del intangible. Muchas organizaciones internacionales han reconocido el papel que juega el patrimonio cultural al interior de una amplia agenda sociocultural. El patrimonio cultural puede ser definido, en términos generales, como un aspecto de la diversidad cultural, la piedra de toque de la identidad, una fuente de ingresos y de empleo, y una forma de capital cultural. La administración efectiva del patrimonio cultural puede ayudar a reducir la pobreza, promover la inclusión social e incrementar la participación cívica. El patrimonio intangible, definido como una combinación de sistemas de conocimientos, costumbres, tradiciones y simbolos expresados en lenguajes, música, danza y artes de espectáculo, festivales, rituales y legendas, es de particular interés para los paises miembros de la RIPC. 1, record 3, Spanish, - Grupo%20de%20Trabajo%20sobre%20Patrimonio%20Cultural

This diversity is widely considered a source of enrichment (passing from closed to open societies, beneficial encounters between cultures and ways of thinking). But it can also generate new incidents of discrimination: dominant groups affirming their identity over minority groups, development of prejudices, xenophobic or intolerant sentiments regarding certain communities, marginalization, exclusion or non-integration of certain groups of society, risks of identity withdrawal, isolation, even the segregation of these groups and the development of incidents of "communitarism." 3, record 4, English, - repli%20identitaire
