Reconfigurando la corresponsabilidad social para la conservación del patrimonio gráfico-rupestre en tiempos de pandemia

Abstract

The current contingency due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the limitations that it entails in our country in social, economic and labor terms, among others, require the National Institute of Anthropology and History (INAH) to seek more creative, flexible and efficient ways to continue developing its functions. In this context and adhering to the eminently social vocation of the Institute, the National Program for the Conservation of Rock-Graphic Heritage (PNCPGR) of the National Coordination for the Conservation of Cultural Heritage (CNCPC) at INAH presents a reflection on the need to rethink the forms work that has been developing and seeking better solutions in times of pandemic; within this, the reconfiguration of social co-responsibility is proposed as a fundamental way to ensure continuity and strengthen the processes of integral conservation of the rock-graphic heritage, addressing binding aspects such as the redefinition of priorities, the orientation towards preventive conservation and the maintenance, the promotion of communities as multipliers, aid community groups and project promoters, the establishment of link networks, the re-identification of key social agents, as well as the use of new forms of linkage and assertive communication to distance, without giving up strategic face-to-face work, among others.
