UNESCO's recognition of attieke as an intangible cultural heritage elevates it to the status of global culinary favorites, highlighting its importance in Ivorian culture.
Ivorian women have played a critical role in preparing attieke, turning the fermented cassava meal into a marker of identity, a source of bonding, and a pathway to financial independence.
Attieke, sometimes referred to as 'Ivorian couscous,' is celebrated not just for its nutritional value but also for the deep cultural connection it represents among Ivorians.
By including attieke on the UNESCO list, the global community acknowledges the intricate skills required to produce it, helping ensure these traditions endure.
