OBJECTIVES<\/h4>\n

To develop an educational program aimed at Educational Institutions, focused on the dissemination, appreciation, and transmission of knowledge, practices, and expressions linked to Tango, a musical genre originating in the City of Buenos Aires and recognized as Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. <\/span>Talents of Tango<\/span><\/i> was also declared of Cultural Interest by the Ministry of Culture of the Government of the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires to be carried out within the framework of the 490th Anniversary of the Foundation of the City of Buenos Aires by Don Pedro de Mendoza.<\/span><\/p>\n

The program aims to raise awareness among children and young people about the value of intangible cultural heritage, promoting its understanding, appropriation, and continuity through an extracurricular educational space. It also seeks to incorporate contents, historical references, and expressions of Tango that are not usually included systematically in formal educational programs, despite their cultural and social relevance.<\/span><\/p>\n

The initiative proposes to strengthen the intergenerational transmission of cultural heritage through an inverse approach, beginning with the active participation of children and young people and extending to their families and communities. Although Tango is expressed in various regions and countries, the program recognizes and contextualizes its historical and symbolic origin in the R\u00edo de la Plata region, particularly in the City of Buenos Aires. Tango is a complex cultural expression that integrates music, dance, poetry, and social identity, and its study allows historical, cultural, and emotional dimensions to be addressed. Through educational analysis and practice, the program fosters creativity, active listening, artistic expression, collaborative work, and respect for cultural diversity.<\/span><\/p>\n

In 2009, UNESCO inscribed Tango on the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, highlighting the need to promote its safeguarding, transmission, and renewal as a living cultural practice. Nevertheless, limited knowledge of this heritage persists among broad sectors of the population, especially among younger generations.<\/span><\/p>\n
