Policy Perspectives on Values and Intangible Cultural Heritage ()
ABSTRACT
Values define human personality and provide the conditions for social
well-being and cohesion. European values—Lisbon Treaty Art. 2—reinforce the
identity of European citizenship and embody an important part of Europe’s
Intangible Cultural Heritage. Thus, their cultivation contributes to the
cohesion of European societies. However, how can we support this high-level
social cause at a policy level? How can we derive multi-perspective
value-centric policy recommendations that can further support this social
cause? Aiming to contribute to the field of values and social cohesion, this
paper aims to propose a concrete set of policy recommendations for promoting
values as a key part of our Intangible
Cultural Heritage and enhancing their digitisation. Adopting a
multi-perspective, participatory policy approach, our study findings validate
the importance of values and highlight the significance of their examination
and research for scientific and for the policy stakeholders, supporting social
cohesion and societal agility.
