The contributions focus especially on the impact of UNESCO’s 2003 Convention for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage and the potential role of ICH in tackling climate change. This introduction provides an overview of the key themes dealt with by contributors in this second forum. The case studies particularly cover creative responses to climate change. Our definition of ‘creative’ is broad- ranging and includes interventions in domains such as theatre and art as well as at the level of community as local people utilise traditional practice in creative ways as a response to climate change. © The Author(s)
