While inventorying and awareness-raising about safeguarding of living heritage are already well underway in Finland\, there is a need for strengthening capacities in safeguarding methodologies. \nThe course dates are 3rd and 4th November 2-4 pm (online) and  10th and 11th November 9 am to 4:30 pm in Hakaniemenranta 6\, Helsinki.
