International audience Resulting from ethnographic fieldwork carried out in South Greenland since 2022, this poster sets out the scientific issues of the project conducted with communities in the southern fjords. It describes and categorizes the diversity, heterogeneity and fragility of the intangible heritage held locally, from an analytical perspective. This project is based on a comparative study of several coastal communities in the Arctic and sub-Arctic regions and the sea-related intangible cultural heritage (ICH) they maintain.
