Rrajca's clothing and dances: Residents want UNESCO inclusion

In the picturesque village of Rrajca, the past lives on every day. The brightly colored and embroidered folk costumes are much more than costumes, they are the living memory of entire generations, which the women of the area still preserve and reproduce by hand, in an artisanal manner.

Heritage here is not a museum, but a reality. The Rrajca dance, with its ancient symbols and distinctive rhythm, is learned early, from the first steps of childhood, building a natural connection with the roots, writes A2 CNN.

But preserving this spiritual wealth requires support. As the years pass, the risk of oblivion is real. Women artisans and the local community have raised their voices for the need for these values ​​to be declared and protected as world heritage by UNESCO.

Inclusion in UNESCO remains a reasonable dream, which requires institutional will and concrete projects. Because behind every costume and every dance lies a history and a people that does not forget who they are. (A2 Televizion)
