摘要：This paper reports on an intangible cultural heritage forum
held at the Australian Museum, Sydney, in 2007. Forum
participants, including representatives from Fiji, Guam,
New Zealand, Norfolk Island, Palau, Samoa, Tonga,
Vanuatu, and Yap as well as members of Sydney’s heritage
community, contributed to a debate on the question of what
the UNESCO Convention for the Safeguarding of the
Intangible Cultural Heritage 2003 means in practical terms
to Pacific countries and how the Australian Museum might
work in partnership with them in their safeguarding efforts.
Importantly, the forum allowed the interests of traditional
knowledge holders to be considered and for a number of
concerns to be noted. These concerns are also of
significance for those working more broadly in the field of
intangible cultural heritage and are reported below.
