Methodological Guide to Support Primary School Teachers for the Dissemination of Timbila as Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in Zavala

The Pedagogical University in Maputo together with support from the UNESCO Office in Maputo developed a Methodological Guide to Support Primary School Teachers for the Dissemination of Timbila as Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in Zavala. This guide was initiated following the adoption of the 2018 National Law on the National Educational System, which sets ‘strengthening the link between schools and communities’ as one of the core pedagogical principles (Article 4g).

Aimed at improving the relevance of primary education, the guide introduced Chopi Timbila, which was inscribed on the Representative List in 2008, in primary schools in Zavala and Inharrime. It was produced as part of a series of activities carried out since 2018, which included a community-based inventory of heritage at the local level.
