ichLinks platform official promotion video
ichLinks is a one-stop online platform where you can easily meet a wide range of intangible cultural heritage (ICH) information and content shared by and with Asia-Pacific Member States. We coined the term as a portmanteau of “ICH” and “Links”, referring to the mutual connections made among ICH and its stakeholders through the platform. Here you are only one click away from a wide range of Asia-Pacific ICH information and content with the help of advanced digital technologies. The platform also serves as a common ground in which various ICH stakeholders, e.g. policy-makers, researchers, institutes, NGOs, communities, and practitioners can interact with one another. Where they create greater value out of pan-regional cultural resources, ichLinks shall create a virtuous cycle of a stronger cultural bond and greater peace throughout the Asia-Pacific region and beyond.

Mongolia : Naadam
The Mongolian Naadam is inseparably connected to the nomadic civilization of the Mongols who have practiced pastoralism on Central Asia’s vast steppe for centuries. Mongols’ traditional Naadam festival consisting of three manly games is considered as one of major cultural heritage elements which Mongols contributed to the nomadic civilizations. The three types of sports games – archery, horserace and wrestling – are directly linked with lifestyles and living conditions of Mongols and thus become the authentic cultural traditions among nomads. National Naadam is celebrated from July 11 to 13 throughout the country, in soums (counties), aimags (provinces), and the capital, Ulaanbaatar. Naadam represents distinct features of Mongolians’ nomadic culture and traditions, with expression of their unique cultural characteristics and images to become an identity of Mongolian people to the outside world. Thus, Mongolian Naadam has served a key factor to unite the Mongolian people and an important symbol of national solidarity.

Board games are an indispensable feature of get-togethers with family and friends. They are not only a fun way of spending quality time together, but are also scientifically proven to improve skills in all kinds of things from financial planning to empathy. Use of traditional board games can contribute to achieving the educational goals of cultural heritage. There are various educational games that are imbued with cultural meaning and promote problem-solving skills across different cultures. On top of helping to develop the player’s mental, emotional, moral, and can contribute to enhancing knowledge about other cultures. Therefore, board games can be used as cost-effective instructional materials with the power to facilitate fun and rapid learning. Although some traditional board games have already been integrated into game-based learning strategies, their practice and transmission are still at risk as a result of urbanization and the effects of digitalization.
