Cultural Heritage and Economy

Cultural heritage refers to the traditions, customs, artifacts, and values passed down through generations that shape a community's identity. It includes tangible elements like monuments and artworks, as well as intangible aspects like language and festivals. The economy intersects with cultural heritage as these elements can attract tourism, generate jobs, and promote local businesses. By preserving cultural heritage, communities can foster economic growth while maintaining their unique identities. This balance enriches society, ensuring that both culture and economy thrive together, creating sustainable development that respects the past while looking to the future.
