Particularly, the word focuses on the protection tools already set for the protection of the ICH, before the UNESCO Convention, letting three different models emerge, to consequently concentrate the investigations toward the effects and perspectives on national legislations after the approval of the UNESCO 2003 multilateral agreement. This framework naturally leads to questioning the existence, on an international scale, of a global legal protection for the ICH, also as per the new fields of action and challenges for the national regulators in the overall UN agenda and as related to the arising notion of biocultural diversity, and to the emerging adaptation of laws and systems of the States Parties in raising the level of legal protection of cultural and identity rights.10aLists of the 2003 Convention (ICH_1331)1 aRylance, K.  uhttps://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84880633336&partnerID=40&md5=c692f44664bc882bc9170ab7c0e8d606
