<div>The ICH NGO Forum is the membership organization of NGOs that are accredited to UNESCO’s 2003 Convention for Safeguarding Intangible Cultural Heritage. It operates, among other things, as a networking organization among NGOs most of whom operate on the ground working with local communities that are the bearers of this heritage and for whom it is often essential for their livelihoods and resilience.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The Forum is launching this fundraising campaign to assist accredited ICH NGOs and communities in emergency situations. A growing number of NGOs and communities are being impacted by climate change (floods, cyclones, mud slides, heat waves, forest fires, drought) and armed conflict (destruction of physical ICH spaces, mortality, forced migration, loss of ICH practices), the two being often linked together. It appears to be increasingly certain this situation will expand over time.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Over the past year, floods in Pakistan, heat waves in Africa and Southern Europe, and armed conflict in Eastern Europe and Africa have made the ICH NGO Forum aware of an urgent need to assist NGOs and communities in situations of crises. The fund aims to help safeguard threatened traditional practices and ICH bearers, but also to use living heritage in creative and constructive ways to help populations overcome the disruptive effects of natural disasters and armed conflict (i.e. basic physical needs, psychological needs, resilience and recovery).
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The fund will be managed by the ICH NGO Forum Executive Board and made available to an NGO or other civil society group located in any country in the world experiencing situations of crisis caused by armed conflict or natural disasters, considered emergency situations. The range of situations defined as emergency will be defined, while allowing for flexibility, following Article 50 of the Operational Directives of the 2003 Convention on disaster response which provides a definition and examples of such emergency situations. The fund is geared to respond quickly to the immediate needs of NGOs and communities in the areas of safeguarding ICH.

<div><strong>Lancement d'un fonds pour venir en aide aux ONG et aux communautés du patrimoine culturel immatériel en situation de crise</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Le Forum des ONG du PCI est une organisation qui vise à regrouper les membres des ONG accréditées auprès de la Convention de 2003 de l'UNESCO pour la sauvegarde du patrimoine culturel immatériel. Il fonctionne, entre autres, comme une organisation de mise en réseau des ONG dont la plupart opèrent sur le terrain en travaillant avec les communautés locales qui sont les dépositaires de ce patrimoine et pour qui il est souvent essentiel pour assurer leurs moyens de subsistance et leur résilience.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Le Forum lance cette campagne de collecte de fonds pour aider les ONG accréditées du PCI et les communautés dans des situations d'urgence. Un nombre croissant d'ONG et de communautés sont impactées par le changement climatique (inondations, cyclones, coulées de boue, vagues de chaleur, incendies de forêt, sécheresse) et les conflits armés (destruction des espaces physiques du PCI, mortalité, migration forcée, perte des pratiques du PCI), les deux étant souvent liés. Il semble de plus en plus certain que cette situation s'aggravera avec le temps.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Au cours de l'année écoulée, les inondations au Pakistan, les vagues de chaleur en Afrique et en Europe du Sud et les conflits armés en Europe de l'Est et en Afrique ont fait prendre conscience au Forum des ONG du PCI de l'urgence de soutenir les ONG et les communautés en situation de crise. Le fonds vise à aider à sauvegarder les pratiques traditionnelles menacées et les détenteurs du PCI, mais aussi à utiliser le patrimoine vivant de manière créative et constructive pour aider les populations à surmonter les effets perturbateurs des catastrophes naturelles et des conflits armés (c'est-à-dire les besoins physiques fondamentaux, les besoins psychologiques, la résilience et le rétablissement).
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Le fonds sera géré par le Conseil exécutif du Forum des ONG du PCI et mis à la disposition d'une ONG ou d'un autre groupe de la société civile situé dans n'importe quel pays du monde connaissant des situations de crise causées par des conflits armés ou des catastrophes naturelles, considérées comme des situations d'urgence. L'éventail des situations qualifiées d'urgence sera défini, tout en permettant une certaine flexibilité, conformément à l'article 50 des Directives opérationnelles de la Convention de 2003 sur la réaction aux catastrophes qui fournit une définition et des exemples de telles situations d'urgence. Le fonds est conçu pour répondre rapidement aux besoins immédiats des ONG et des communautés dans les domaines de la sauvegarde du PCI.
