The Expo 2023 Doha Organizing Committee recently orchestrated a series of Garangao activities and events, meticulously curated to engage and entertain the youth while also enlightening them about customs and traditions observed during the holy month of Ramadan. Among the highlights were interactive sessions where participants could design traditional Garangao candy bags, offering a hands-on experience in the cultural practices cherished during this time. These activities served as an educational platform, ensuring that the younger generation not only understands but also appreciates their cultural heritage.
Furthermore, complementing the festive atmosphere, a symposium was held, inviting cultural and heritage experts to share their insights and expertise. Through engaging discussions and presentations, attendees gained a deeper understanding of the historical significance and cultural importance of Garangao and associated celebrations.
Incorporating cultural values into such initiatives not only promotes cultural preservation but also fosters a sense of belonging and unity within the community. This approach to cultural engagement aligns with broader sustainability goals of Expo 2023 Doha, as it reinforces the connection between cultural heritage, community, and environmental stewardship.
