Cuba aspires to include the local Rumba genre as part of the representative list of the Cultural immaterial Heritage of the United Nation Organization for the Education, Science and Culture (UNESCO), during the meeting of the governmental Committee about that theme.

In the meeting, which is planned to be carried out from November 28th through December 2nd in Ethiopia, will be decided the insertion of that musical genre on that list which includes the Beer from Belgium and the 24 solar period, the knowledge about time in China and the related practice that is developed through the observation of the sun´s annual movement, According to the local Prensa Latina news agency.

The reports given by the UNESCO about that theme, accept the Rumba musical genre´s values as an expressive style of music and dance which mixtures tradition and the contemporary by promoting the self-esteem and the cultural identity of its practitioners.
