Decree 3,551 established federal registers for forms of expression, ways of doing, places, and celebrations considered Brazilian intangible heritage, alongside a national program for safeguarding it. This created a new route for recognizing practices such as samba de roda, jongo, tambor de crioula, and capoeira as cultural knowledge held and renewed by communities. Registration could bring visibility and support, but it did not transfer ownership to practitioners or guarantee the resources needed to sustain traditions.
