Italian cuisine gets the green light from UNESCO to become Intangible Cultural

Italy is one step closer to being approved to become an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO. 

UNESCO has released its technical evaluation of the nomination file for Italian cuisine. They recommended that Italian cuisine be included on the UN body's List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, following a joint proposal by the Italian ministries of culture and agriculture.

The final decision by the UN agency's intergovernmental committee is expected next month.

"It is wonderful to see the interest with which the recognition of Italian cuisine as a UNESCO heritage site is being pursued," commented the Minister of Agriculture, Food Sovereignty and Forestry, Francesco Lollobrigida.

Italy already boasts several elements on UNESCO's list of Intangible Cultural Heritage, including the art of Neapolitan 'Pizzaiuolo' (2017), the art of glass beads (2020), the practice of opera singing (2023) and manual bell ringing (2024).

The UNESCO Committee will meet in New Delhi, India, from December 8 to 13./CNA
