KulturerbePflege

KulturerbePflege is a German non-profit organization dedicated to the preservation and promotion of cultural heritage. Established in 2002, the organization focuses on various aspects of cultural preservation, including historical sites, traditional crafts, and intangible cultural heritage such as customs, festivals, and languages. KulturerbePflege works closely with local communities, governments, and international partners to implement projects that safeguard cultural heritage and foster cultural diversity.

The organization's activities encompass documentation, restoration, and revitalization of cultural sites and artifacts. KulturerbePflege also engages in educational programs to raise awareness about the importance of cultural heritage among the public. These programs often include workshops, seminars, and public exhibitions that showcase traditional crafts, arts, and customs.

One of KulturerbePflege's key initiatives is the "Cultural Heritage in Danger" program, which identifies and supports communities in preserving their cultural heritage that is at risk due to natural disasters, war, or other threats. The organization provides technical assistance, training, and financial support to help these communities develop sustainable preservation strategies.

KulturerbePflege is a member of the International Council on Monuments and Sites (ICOMOS) and the International Council of Museums (ICOM). These affiliations allow the organization to collaborate with global networks and share best practices in cultural heritage preservation. The organization's work is funded through a combination of grants, donations, and partnerships with public and private sectors.

Through its comprehensive approach to cultural heritage preservation, KulturerbePflege contributes to the preservation of Germany's rich cultural diversity and plays a significant role in the global effort to safeguard cultural heritage for future generations.
