Vanuatu Cultural Centre. The Vanuatu Cultural Center is a statutory body under the laws of Vanuatu whose primary function is "to support, encourage and make provisions for the preservation, protection and development of various aspects of the cultural heritage of Vanuatu". In practice, the principle role of the Vanuatu Cultural Center since its establishment in the 1960s, has been to document and record the culture and cultural history of Vanuatu. This has been done by the Cultural Center staff and a network of approximately 60 volunteer field workers throughout the islands of Vanuatu. The main focus of our documentation efforts are details of remembered histories and traditions (the latter are also called legends), details of ritual practices, classification systems and languages., details of cultural landscapes and particularly sites of cultural significance, and records of contemporary events of historical and cultural significance.
