Kazakhstan National Committee for Intangible Cultural Heritage was established by the UNESCO National Commission in 2012, after joining to the Convention (2003). The ICH National Committee works with the communities and ICH bearers on identifying the ICH elements across the country and making surveys of the traditional knowledge manifestations and performances in some of the areas of Kazakhstan. By today the national inventory of the ICH elements compiles of more than 50 elements. 11 ICH elements were inscribed to the UNESCO Representative List, and 6 of it were multinational nominations.
