Culture Ministry Meeting G20 Cultural Carnival as an Introduction to the Value of Borobudur Temple Relief

The G20 Culture Ministers Meeting (CMM) Cultural Carnival of 2022 successfully introduced the moral and cultural values embedded in Borobudur Temple's Jataka reliefs through a creative fusion of dance, costumes, props, and traditional performances. This approach effectively planted these values into community practices, fostering local creativity and artistic innovation while serving as a cultural icon for tourists. The study highlights how 20 Jataka narratives were adapted into dynamic performances by villages in Borobudur District, demonstrating the potential of heritage-based art to bridge tradition and contemporary expression. Using descriptive research methods, the analysis reveals that such initiatives can enhance community engagement and preserve intangible cultural heritage.
