The Korèdugaw parody and mock every figure of knowledge and of power, and put in question authority, social behaviour, sexuality and even the relation to death. They are endangered. Laughter and satire are closely bound to freedom of speech and to creation; they are the guarantors of a free society and an open door onto life. The Korèdugaw society was inscribed by UNESCO on the list of the intangible heritage of humanity on 24 November 2011.
