Abstract

In these times of globalisation, our world is rapidly changing. The interdependence of the world’s economy, politics and culture is growing, which results in positive but also negative outcomes. For example, the loss of cultural diversity. Research has been done on the influences of globalisation on cultural diversity, but research on how to preserve cultural diversity and especially religio-cultural heritage is still overlooked. This thesis will look at how non-governmental organizations can contribute to the preservation of the heritage of religio-cultural minorities. To gather the needed data I used the Jimmy Nelson Foundation and their approaches toward preserving Dutch religio-cultural heritage as a case study. Participant observation and a questionnaire amongst three Dutch community members have shown that an NGO can act as a channel for religio-cultural minorities to preserve their heritage in the future.
