FIAT-IFTA, the World Organization of Funeral Operatives, is honored to invite you to a special celebration of the UNESCO Day of Intangible Cultural Heritage.

While UNESCO officially marks this important day on October 17, we will celebrate it on October 16, 2025, during FUNERMOSTRA, one of the leading international funeral industry exhibitions.

This meaningful gathering will bring together professionals and cultural representatives from around the world to recognize and celebrate the rich traditions, rituals, and practices that honor the departed and safeguard our shared human heritage.

On this occasion, FIAT-IFTA is proud to officially launch the Spanish printed edition of the FIAT-IFTA Heritage Report. We extend our sincere gratitude to PANASEF Asociacion Nacional de Servicios Funeratios - Spain for their generous support and for coordinating the printing of this significant publication.

We also warmly thank FUNERMOSTRA for their invaluable collaboration and support in hosting this special event.

Join us as we pay tribute to the intangible cultural heritage of funeral traditions and foster global dialogue on remembrance, respect, and cultural continuity.

We look forward to welcoming you.
