Cultural Documentation

Cultural documentation refers to the processes and methods used to record, preserve, and share the traditions, practices, beliefs, and artifacts of a particular culture or community. This can involve various forms of media, such as writing, photography, audio recordings, and visual arts. The goal is to capture the essence of a culture for future generations, promoting understanding and appreciation. It helps to safeguard cultural heritage, especially for communities at risk of losing their traditional practices, while also educating others about diverse ways of life.
