The organization Workshop intangible heritage Flanders (Werkplaats Immaterieel Erfgoed) is active as NGO in the field of intangible cultural heritage in Flanders. Predecessor of this new organization was known as NGO tapis plein - Centre of expertise on intangible cultural heritage (ICH) and heritage participation (BE), which developed a series of activities between 2003 and 2017. Main focus and achievements consist in developing participatory intangible heritage practices and policies in societal context. Werkplaats Immaterieel Erfgoed takes an active role as cultural broker in the field: building bridges between governments, NGO's, institutions, ICH communities and groups … To this aim, it organizes a range of initiatives: from capacity building, policy support, the digital ICH platform of Flanders, project management and coaching, sensitization, platforms for public dialogue, education, action research, methodological tools, conceptual reflection, publications etc. In recent years NGO tapis plein has engaged in cultivating ICH network development, collaborating with many actors (e.g. organizations on crafts, performing arts, local heritage units, the Flemish Government, FARO-Flemish Interface for cultural heritage, etc). The organization takes also an active role in crossdisciplinary and international networks on ICH, especially in relation to the UNESCO 2003 Convention, the ICH NGO Forum and the relation between NGOs and the Convention. Based on the experience of the last 15 years the organization is now set for a new start with a new mission, right in the heart of today's super-diverse society.
