This builds on the last edition\u2019s theme which was \u2018\u2019Door of Return\u2019\u2019. Future Heritage now explores the question of what the future of African heritage will look like.<\/p>\n<p>Key questions that this year&#8217;s event seeks to answer include: How is our traditional identity going to evolve? What impact will contemporary culture have on our future heritage as it stands today? As it continues to evolve through pop culture, media, and cultural arts education.<\/p>\n<p>Others are: What do we want our future heritage to look like? Which aspects of it are we ready to let go? And which aspects must be integral? As culture is a fluid human institution, who do we invite to the table to help us create this future heritage? In essence, how does today\u2019s society want to be remembered in the future? With Ghana becoming an increasingly Pan-African melting pot, taking in influences from across the global black diaspora.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/ghana\">Ghana<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Ghana.
