The Role of Educational Curricula in Preserving, Preserving and Protecting Heritage

Abstract

Heritage is considered a symbol of identity, especially minority groups, and it is also considered a symbol linked to cultural places that cannot be abandoned. Its importance in its neighborhoods also lies in increasing development rates in the country, job opportunities, economic activity, and increasing training experiences that contribute to promoting development, not to mention increasing social cohesion and helping to promote peace among all, through its role in enhancing trust and common knowledge. Preserving cultural heritage in general is one of the distinguishing features of civilized countries. These countries are in a race against time to preserve their heritage, which requires community awareness. Since 2017, the UNESCO Living Heritage Authority has been working with the UNESCO education sector, field offices and education institutes to implement projects, activities and initiatives related to... Preserving cultural heritage in formal and nonformal education. The importance of including local heritage in educational curricula lies in helping students develop a sense of pride in their culture and heritage, as well as an appreciation for the cultures and heritage of others, and providing students with a sense of identity and connection to their community.
