The initiative aims to value popular traditions, stimulate the sharing of memories, and bring generations closer, through conversations about All Saints' Day, the differences between old customs and today's, as well as how Halloween has been integrating into current celebrations.
The activity also includes a playful and creative component, with the creation of cards dedicated to the participants' preferred saints and the making of 'broas' (traditional cakes), reviving traditional flavors and practices.
Among the preservation of cultural heritage, cognitive stimulation, creativity, and social interaction, this initiative provides moments of sharing and personal valorization, recognizing the elderly as important guardians of the community's memories and traditions.
With “Our Hands, Our Traditions”, the CLDS 5G reinforces its commitment to promoting active aging, social inclusion, and the valorization of the people and cultural identity of the municipality of Sousel.
