2023年是《保护非物质文化遗产公约》通过20周年，亦即联合国教科文组织大会第三十二届会议于2003年10月17日通过该《公约》已经20年了。这是教科文组织、《公约》缔约国和所有参与保护活态遗产的利益攸关方强调活态遗产属于所有人的一个契机。本年度纪念活动以“我们即#活态遗产”为主题，旨在反思2003年《公约》在提高人们对非物质文化遗产多样性和丰富性的认识以及促进国际合作方面所发挥的作用。
活态遗产是关于人、韧性和代代相传的知识。因此，周年纪念也邀请各国政府、非政府组织、大学、传承者、实践者和那些欣赏活态遗产的人组织活动，加入教科文组织的社交媒体运动(标签#LivingHeritage)，在线或亲自关注周年纪念活动。
