LOCAL WISDOM UNVEILED: EXPLORING PARTICIPATORY TERRITORIAL APPROACHES IN MUNICIPAL CULTURE AGENDAS AND IDENTITY NARRATIVES
Abstract
This research delves into the dynamics of participatory territorial approaches, shedding light on their role in shaping municipal culture agendas and identity narratives. Employing a qualitative inquiry, the study explores the collaborative processes that engage local communities in co-creating and expressing their cultural identity. Through in-depth analysis of participatory initiatives, the research uncovers the nuanced interplay between community-driven efforts, municipal policies, and the construction of local knowledge. The findings contribute to the understanding of how participatory approaches influence cultural sustainability, fostering a deeper connection between communities and their evolving identities.
