This research explores how performances, particularly songs, dance, cultural games and other participatory art forms can be harnessed as tools for cultural memory reconstruction, and social transformation in conflict-affected communities, particularly amongst children. Using the case of Northern Nigeria and the Boko Haram insurgency, the study examines how dislocated cultural memories among displaced children and communities can be reconstructed through community-based performances. Drawing from theories of cultural sustainability, performance studies, and memory studies, the research highlights how performance spaces become sites of healing, dialogue, and identity reconstruction. It also underscores the potentials of co-creative initiatives and participatory arts to bridge generational gaps, promote indigenous knowledge, and foster resilience in the face of conflict-driven and forceful dislocation.

The study contributes to scholarship by demonstrating that artistic and cultural practices are not only aesthetic expressions but also critical interventions in post-conflict recovery and peacebuilding. It argues for integrating cultural performance into education, psychosocial support, and heritage-related initiatives, positioning community video and related arts as essential in shaping individual and collective memory, cultural continuity, and sustainable peace.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本研究探討表演,特別是歌曲、舞蹈、文化遊戲及其他參與性藝術形式如何被用作文化記憶重建和社會轉型的工具,尤其是在受衝突影響的社區中,特別是對於兒童。以尼日利亞北部及博科哈拉姆叛亂為案例,該研究檢視如何透過社區基礎的表演來重建流離失所的兒童和社區之間的文化記憶。研究借鑒文化可持續性、表演研究和記憶研究的理論,強調表演空間如何成為治癒、對話和身份重建的場所。它還強調了共同創作倡議和參與性藝術在彌合代際差距、促進本土知識和在面對衝突驅動及強制流離中培養韌性方面的潛力。

該研究對學術界的貢獻在於證明藝術和文化實踐不僅是美學表達,也是後衝突恢復和和平建設中的關鍵介入。它主張將文化表演納入教育、心理社會支持和與遺產相關的倡議中,並將社區視頻及相關藝術定位為塑造個人和集體記憶、文化延續和可持續和平的重要元素。
