Disseminating oral traditions

Encouraging oral traditions

Description

Disseminating oral traditions involves actively transmitting stories, histories, customs, and knowledge through spoken word across generations and communities. This strategy preserves cultural identity, bridges generational gaps, and safeguards intangible heritage at risk of loss due to modernization or language decline. By organizing storytelling events, training narrators, and recording oral accounts, communities ensure the survival and accessibility of vital cultural wisdom, remedying the erosion of collective memory and fostering social cohesion.
