Culture has become an essential resource: new cultural practices are one of many consequences of the emergence of a definition of heritage even wider together with the role of migrations which take some new aspects. The aspect of migration connected to cultural heritage is innovative and concerns the influence of generations of migrants who settle their customs, ways of making culture that enriches the heritage and the territory in which they live in the cities and places of reception.

COVID19 pandemic is bringing about changes in this field with the use of technology and digital tools (big data and artificial intelligence) that could have a sure role in relaunching this sector as well as deepening knowledge for an enhancement and conservation of traditions and heritage, that is important for the city, the region, the state, a country.
