Brazil ratified the 2003 UNESCO Convention for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage. Ratification committed the state to identify and safeguard living cultural practices in cooperation with communities.

Its language of safeguarding also required attention to who defines a tradition and who benefits from its promotion, since state and tourism projects can detach practices from their communities.
