Today, we honor the AfroCosta Rican community and the generations who have helped shape Costa Rica through their strength, creativity, music, traditions, and way of life.Recognizing AfroCosta Rican culture is also about recognizing the people behind it their history, their contributions, and the richness they bring to the identity of our country.For us, what makes Costa Rica special is not only its landscapes and natural beauty, but the people and cultures that give this country its soul.Today, we celebrate that heritage, with respect, gratitude, and pride.

Our diversity is part of what makes Costa Rica home.
