description Questions about the intangible cultural heritage (ICH) in recent years represent not only the mere registration, safeguarding, and sustainability of elements, and the application of the UNESCO Convention, but they also pose the problem of functioning and (lack of) experts in charge of the processes above. Considering the complex situation surrounding the overall political and cultural context of Bosnia and Herzegovina, and thus the adopted Convention and its application, the issue of education and the work of experts in the field of protection of the ICH arise. Based on the “inside” and “outside” view, the paper will try to draw attention to the issues of education and the concrete actions of experts who acquired (and are acquiring) their competencies in different ways. The paper also emphasizes the evident need for changing/supplementing the educational programs of the profile of future experts in culture on the example of East Sarajevo. One of the two existing universities in the Republika Srpska is located in East Sarajevo, recognized as the “student” and “university center of the eastern part of Srpska”. This area is also rich on musical, folkloristic, and cultural level, and one element on the preliminary list of the ICH of Republika Srpska-Bosnia and Herzegovina comes from East Sarajevo. The aim of the paper is, on the one hand, to point out the problem of education and the creation of profiles of experts in culture through different levels of education, and on the other hand, to point out of activity of artists, (un)official experts and associations in culture, observed through the prism of ICH in the area of the City of East Sarajevo.
