Social practices, rituals and festive events

Social practices, rituals and festive events

Social practices, rituals and festive events are activities that structure and characterize the daily life in a community or group. They are relevant and functional in the community or group.

These activities are important, because they illustrate and fortify the identity of the practitioners, whether or not they take place in a private or public setting.

These practices are linked to events that the community and/or group considers important.

Social practices, rituals and festive events can help measure the social development of a community both collectively and individually.

The social practices, rituals and festive events of a community are strongly influenced by the cultural dynamism of the community. They are constantly subject to change.
