Global InCH: Journal of Living Heritage is dedicated to the critical study of living heritage. The journal foregrounds material culture and intangible cultural practices situating them within their historical trajectories as well as their contemporary social, economic and environmental contexts. Engaging with questions of transmission, labour, ecology, gender, mobility, intellectual property, and heritage governance and policy, Global InCH remains firmly attentive to local knowledge systems and the voices of practitioners and communities
The Global InCH Archive comprising of over 700 essays by more than 260 contributing scholars, practitioners, museum professionals, and cultural workers, bridges academic research, field-based documentation, and policy-oriented discourse.
Together the Journal and Archive serves as a platform for informed scholarship and reflective practice, contributing to global conversations on heritage, sustainability, and cultural futures in a changing world.
