Abstract

This research investigates the impact of Colombian culture on the formative processes of children in the Santa Marta neighborhood, Pamplona. The main objectives were to promote cultural activities in children's free time and strengthen their cultural identity. A qualitative approach was used, employing techniques such as participant observation and semi-structured interviews within an action-research framework. The study population consisted of children from the Santa Marta neighborhood. The theoretical framework was based on the importance of cultural transmission for social cohesion and personal development. The developed proposal included activities in art, literature, dance, and theater. The research findings indicated that engaging in cultural activities during free time significantly contributes to children's integral development and social cohesion.
