Strategic Focus
The main purpose of the GIGP is to highlight and understand the complex relationships that are woven around the category of heritage from its very different sources and disciplines that address it as a social and cultural phenomenon. It seeks to explore, analyze and propose alternatives to contribute to the revaluation of cultural practices, and historical structures and objects, which can configure and transform practices and perceptions about oneself and others.
