Shared research practices as a self-empowerment process for heritage communities
| Resumo: | ICTMD is a worldwide scholarly NGO focused on studying music, dance, and other performative practices. Many of its members are deeply committed to heritagization processes, especially since the 2003 Convention was approved, which included scholars as mediators in organizing UNESCO applications. Immediately following the approval of the Convention, many countries began creating their own lists for intangible heritage, increasing the demand for ICTMD members to be involved. In the case of the ethnomusicologists from the University of Aveiro in Portugal, we have been invited to participate in five processes for the National List and two for the World Heritage List. This presentation will address how, based on our experience, the use of shared research practices—specifically developing research in teams that include both professional and non-professional researchers, including community members—has led to essential dynamics that transform the heritage of music and dance into added value for communities. The case of Kola San Jon and Multipart Singing Women Practices will be specially addressed. |
