Abstract :
Cultural heritage transfer is a process carried out by transferring the knowledge of individual or society based on experience from the past, both materially and spiritually, to the next generation. Today, people spend most of their time at work and the rest with mass media, so that this communication between young people and their families is decreasing. Turkey is providing the cultural values within the scope of Protection of Intangible Cultural Heritage which today plays a very important role and provides protection and sustainability by transferring very important cultural values in the name of Turkish nation and culture. This study is a compilation study aimed to introduce cultural values in Turkey in accordance with protection under UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage agreement.
