Patrimonio cultural y territorio desdela gestión cultural del Club de Caminantes Cusco: un acercamiento a través de la cultura viva comunitaria

Abstract

Club de Caminantes Cusco (CCQ) is a multidisciplinary group that through its activities raises a debate around concepts such as cultural heritage and territory, which are relevant to the intervention of cultural management and different disciplines. The walk and other local paradigms based on community living culture function as models of integral alternative education that allow understanding these notions from a local perspective. The objective of this article is to detail the learning process from the three stages of development of the CCQ: 1) as a way of learning and exploring concepts related to territory and heritage, 2) as an activity that promotes multidisciplinary dialogue of these concepts, and 3) as a way of multidisciplinary work with other communities of community living culture. The conceptualization of this cultural management is gathered thanks to the testimonies of different members of the CCQ and allies. The main finding of this process is that the community living culture activities allow us to know the type of relationship we want to have with the heritage and the territory; they also promote the idea of a living territory or heritage, and as a consequence, a sense of belonging and cultural relevance for any process of multidisciplinary intervention.
