A friend passed the following info to me, I thought I'd share it with you:

"I thought this might of some interest to knowledge workers: http://www.curra.ca/.... One of the project's new focus areas is Intangible Cultural Heritage (ICH) ... documenting, preserving, etc. It seems to me to be similar to TEK/ATK (traditional ecological knowledge/aboriginal traditional knowledge) but with a socio-cultural focus (vs. natural environment): songs, stories, building methods. How this differs from folklore, I'm not sure."

Not sure if anyone in this group has an interest in TEK, it came up in a project I did a couple of years ago, it's an interesting "problem" to solve, sort of like the retiring workforce issue, but on a completely different level.
