Culture and Digital Technologies
Digital technologies have a profound impact on our lives, including the way we experience and access culture. As cultural practices and irreplaceable heritage of humanity face novel challenges such as climate change, unsustainable developments and growing tourism, innovations can offer solutions.
The UNESCO Programme on Cultural and Digital Technologies, generously funded by Ministry of Culture of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, strengthens our action around heritage towards the achievement of the 2030 Agenda. From digital mapping of diverse practices around food, a very first online museum showcasing stolen cultural artefacts to 3D modelling of World Heritage sites, the diverse projects together embody and harness the potential of technologies for the new chapter of culture for all.
Dive into Heritage is creating an innovative online platform that leverages digital technologies to safeguard and promote World Heritage sites and its related intangible heritage, and transmit it to future generations.
