Aigine CRC serves as a national partner of the festival and facilitated the participation of seven craftspeople from Kyrgyzstan\u2019s southern regions. During the festival, the team documented traditional craft workshops, recorded various practices, household items, and musical instruments, and presented video materials dedicated to the national ICH database. At the conference, Aigine CRC presented two projects: “A Digital Journey into the World of Kyrgyzstan\u2019s Cultural Heritage,” introduced by Cholponai Usubalieva, head of Aigine\u2019s project department; “Development of a National Crafts Database in Kyrgyzstan,” presented by Aiza Abdyrahmanova, project coordinator at Aigine CRC. This year\u2019s festival honored the memory of its founder Dinara Chochunbaeva, a longstanding partner of Aigine. At the conference, the Aigine team shared updates and interim results of these projects.
