The UNESCO Intergovernmental Committee for the Safeguarding of Intangible Heritage concluded its annual meeting in Baku, Azerbaijan at the start of December. I was a bit busy with work, a house move, Christmas preparations, and time off, so it kind of passed me by. My belated congratulations to all the new listed elements!
