“The Role of Media in Safeguarding National & Cultural Heritage”
As the Asia-Pacific Broadcasting Union prepares to convene its 62nd General Assembly and Associated Meetings in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia hosted by MNB, we extend an open invitation to all members and partners to join a timely and essential conversation on “The Role of Media in Safeguarding National & Cultural Heritage.”
In an era of rapid globalization and digital transformation, the responsibility of media extends beyond information delivery. Broadcasters need to play a vital role in preserving languages, traditions, and cultural narratives that define the soul of nations. As storytellers, educators, and record-keepers, broadcasters across the Asia-Pacific region are uniquely positioned to ensure that our diverse cultural legacies are not only preserved but meaningfully passed on to future generations.
