- **Event Description**: The Dukpa Living Heritage Festival: A Celebration of Culture

The Dukpa Living Heritage Festival is all about celebrating and saving the traditions of the Dukpa community. It’s a colorful event where people come together to share their customs, arts, crafts, music, and dance. But it’s more than just a fun festival—it’s a way for the Dukpa people to protect their traditions and make sure they don’t disappear.

Experts found that some of the Dukpa community’s important traditions, like their stories, skills, and dances, were starting to fade. To help fix this, the festival will bring in cultural experts from Bhutan who know a lot about these traditions. These experts will not only show their skills but also teach the local Dukpa people, especially the younger ones, to keep their culture alive.

On September 9th, 2024, the first meeting for this festival was held at Rajabhatkhaoa. This meeting was a big step forward in protecting the Dukpa culture. Many important people attended, including:

Sri Raj Basu, the founder of the Association for Conservation & Tourism (ACT)
Sri Lal Singh Bhujel, a social worker and community leader from ACT
Sri Ram Kumar Lama, a volunteer from ACT
Sri Pincho Dukpa, secretary of the Lepchakha Homestay Association
Sri Kiley Dorjee Dukpa, Sri Dawa Dukpa, Sri Namgay Tshering Dukpa, and Sri Phuentsho Dukpa, members of the Lepchakha Homestay Association
Sri Soham Chakraborty, a volunteer from ACT in Alipurduar
Sri Oshan Lepcha, a coordinator from ACT

At the meeting, everyone shared ideas on how to keep the Dukpa culture strong. They talked about ways to bring back old traditions and teach them to future generations.

By the end of the meeting, they officially announced the start of the first Dukpa Living Heritage Festival. This festival will be a chance for everyone to enjoy the Dukpa community’s rich history, while also making sure their traditions are passed down to future generations.
