ABSTRACT

Under the backdrop of the Rural Revitalization Strategy, high-quality rural ICH talents—critical to the continuity of traditional culture and the advancement of rural economies—have increasingly become a focus of attention. As a living gene pool of Chinese civilization and a unique aesthetic symbol, ICH’s deep integration with rural talent cultivation is an inevitable path to rural cultural revitalization. However, current rural ICH talent cultivation faces practical challenges: insufficient precision in policy support, low operational efficiency of inheritance platforms, and weak endogenous motivation among talents. Additionally, its development is constrained by unimpeded urban-rural resource flow and inadequate integration with the modern education system. To address these issues, this study proposes three key measures: constructing a stratified and precision-oriented cultivation mechanism, building a smart empowerment platform for ICH inheritance, and improving a full-chain incentive policy for talents. These efforts aim to facilitate the transformation of rural ICH talents from traditional artisans to compound talents through practices of "skill inheritance—cultural understanding—innovative transformation," thereby achieving the goal of rural talent revitalization via "talent-driven industry development and industry-facilitated cultural inheritance."
