Africa-Press – Cape verde. The different neighborhoods of Cidade Velha, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, already have their representatives, who will play the role of “active mediator” between those responsible for managing the site and the community.
According to a note from the Cultural Heritage Institute (IPC) sent to Inforpress, this election aimed to ensure that each neighborhood has an “active mediator” between those responsible for managing the site and the community, living up to axis I – Involvement, Participation and Social Cohesion, from the Management Plan for Cidade Velha, World Heritage, 2019/2022, approved by Unesco.
This procedure, which highlights the need for the involvement of the local population in the process of managing the historic site, proposes a new approach to integrating residents and inter-institutional articulation mechanisms.
Which implies, according to the same source, a permanent articulation between the institutions with responsibility in this aspect with the community, with a view to valuing itself and incorporating its contribution, aiming to “awaken a new look” in relation to the historical richness of the place.
