TOURISM: NEW EDITION OF THE REGIONAL IDENTITY WORKSHOP
Days ago, the Regional Identity Workshop “Heritage is All of Us: The search for our identity in the objects, symbols, and nature of our region” was held at the Convention Center with the participation of more than 50 attendees.
This meeting was led by Carlos Fernández Balboa, Museologist and Master in Environmental Education, advisor to the National Ministry of Culture for the Jesuit Missions Cultural Itinerary Program.
The workshop was an action developed by the Undersecretariat of Tourism and promoted by the Ente Mixto Concordiense de Turismo, which aims to expand the tourism support base of the destination, one of the strategic axes of the administration.
The day, which lasted six hours with a morning and an afternoon session, began with the determination of guiding concepts such as identity, heritage, and community, the importance of national, regional, and local identities, and heritage classification systems.
In the afternoon block, the identification of resources, objects, and natural, cultural, and intangible heritage of the region was carried out.
This base, which constitutes a public heritage that is generally invisible, will facilitate the identification of new resources, heritage spaces, and the resignification of museums and regional interpretation centers.
As a closing, the participatory workshop constituted a rich inventory of assets to promote sustainable tourism development through the heritage activation of these spaces and resources.
The Undersecretariat of Tourism expressed its gratitude for the support and accompaniment of Arch. Marcelo Vázquez, head of the Directorate of Urban and Territorial Development, the Directorate of Institutional Communication, Ceremonial and Protocol, and all the attendees.
