The general Umbrella Theme for 2018 is the “Traditional and Local Knowledge as Heritage”. In 2018, Sweden is the Honoured Country with the support of the Swedish Institute at Athens.

Traditional and local knowledge is the most dynamic expression of human activity at multiple levels. This dynamic, intellectual complex necessitates special managerial tools for future safeguarding. The framework of free market related to heritage management is widely used in everyday life, but few comprehend their essential role.
