The Wiki Loves Folklore International photography contest serves as a vital catalyst for preserving intangible cultural heritage, in accordance with the 2003 UNESCO Convention. It encourages people from diverse backgrounds to capture and share images representing their cultural heritage, effectively documenting and sharing these intangible aspects of culture. Through visual storytelling, it raises awareness about the importance of cultural practices, rituals, and traditions and promotes community engagement in heritage preservation. By showcasing intangible cultural heritage on Wikimedia Commons, Wiki Loves Folklore ensures its transmission to future generations, making it more accessible and relevant in the modern world while upholding the principles of the 2003 UNESCO Convention.

Every year, the Wiki Loves Folklore photography contest runs from February 1st to March 31st. Originally globally launched in 2019 as "Wiki Loves Love", the contest was subsequently renamed to "Wiki Loves Folklore." Over its 5-year journey, the contest has garnered an impressive collection of 79,844 media files from 168 different countries, with the invaluable contribution of 6,414 dedicated volunteers.
