Abstract

“Cultural heritage” stands for the sum total of our fundamental knowledge of human creativity. It incorporates different identities of man’s existence on the Earth. Throughout the history of the world, this knowledge has combined man’s own reason with empirical rules whilst constantly questioning existence. This cultural heritage, which is both tangible and intangible, then assumed a transcultural value that has enhanced diversities and increased fruitful dialogue in the different regions of the Earth, regulated by the laws of nature alone. This transcultural diplomacy has an ethical value at the world level, and today more than ever is a fundamental reference for rethinking all together with the continuation of the existence of man on Earth. This paper aims to holistically analyse all activities related to creativity and the enhancement of cultural heritage, to create dialogues, enhancement projects, and transcultural studies for the progress of humanity in respect of international law.
