Digital methods in the humanities and social sciences have revolutionized the anthropology of heritage, enabling representation, safeguarding, and repositioning of living heritage. Anthropologists now use immersive technologies like virtual reality and augmented reality to create engaging experiences for a global audience. Digital archives and databases preserve cultural information, protecting living heritage from decay and loss. Participatory approaches involve local communities in curating their heritage, empowering cultural ownership. Social media and digital platforms amplify living heritage’s global voice, promoting cross-cultural dialogue. Ethical concerns and cultural sensitivity must be considered when using digital methods. Addressing digital divides and data privacy challenges ensures inclusive access to digital resources. Anthropologists play a crucial role in using digital methods responsibly to promote cultural diversity and understanding. Collaborative efforts using digital technologies safeguard and revitalize endangered traditions, enhancing the appreciation of living heritage in the modern world.
