List of Intangible Cultural Heritage

On November 28, 2016, the Committee for the Protection of Intangible Cultural Heritage List included Cossack songs of the Dnipropetrovsk region on the List of Intangible Cultural Heritage in need of urgent protection. According to the committee, these works, sung by Cossack communities in the region, talk about the tragedy of war and the personal experiences of soldiers.
