Description The Convention for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage, which was adopted at the General Conference of UNESCO in 2003, is now, after ten years, considered a great success, bringing many positive results to so many countries. This Convention achieved entry into force only three years later in 2006 when Romania became the thirtieth country to ratify this important instrument. The initial years, until 2008, were a period of preparation and organization to implement the Convention. The Intergovernmental Committee was organized, and the Operational Directives were formulated.
