The workshop held in online format on 22 February 2024. Experts from Kazakhstan, Mongolia, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan took part in the workshop with presentation of national reports. The objectives of the workshop were: (1) sharing progress and challenges for data collection in 2023, and (2) identification of working schedule in 2024, including final workshop to be held at the end of the year. The results of the project have been regularly published through IRCI Research Database (https://www.irci.jp/ichdb/). It is expected that each participating country should submit information on 70 academic publications in the field of ICH studies in current year (book, project report, journal article, thesis/dissertation, proceedings of the conferences, audio-visual materials, and others). Representative of IICAS proposed participating countries also to collect research data on shared with other countries ICH elements. In this regard, participants have been informed on research activities and publications of IICAS, including its published twice a year Bulletin.
