Mapping digital actors of Intangible Cultural Heritage in France

Mapping digital actors of Intangible Cultural Heritage in France

The protection of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of UNESCO is ensured by a complex network of actors: institutions, associations, groups and individuals. The goal of this project is to understand which are the main actors in France and monitor over time the interactions between them. Web mapping has been identified as the most suitable methodology for this analysis. This method relies on the underlying idea that hyperlinks between web sites can be used as representations of social connections.
