The Summit is organised in the frame of our projects European Heritage Hub, European Cultural Heritage Agora and European Heritage Awards co-funded by the European Union.
On the eve of the Summit, we are organising the Lecture “Art and Cultural Heritage in Wartime Ukraine” by our Vice-President Natalia Moussienko, in partnership with Università Ca’ Foscari di Venezia and the Council of Europe Programme Office in Venice. Due to limited capacity, the participation in this event is upon invitation only.
The European Cultural Heritage Summit 2023 is organised by Europa Nostra and co-funded by the European Union. Coinciding with Europa Nostra’s 60th Anniversary, the 2023 Summit will take place between 27 and 30 September in the unique but endangered World Heritage City of Venice. The choice of Venice has a highly symbolic value. The European history and significance of this historic city, combined with its breathtaking yet fragile beauty, has always been at the very heart of the mission of Europa Nostra.
Our 60th anniversary represents the perfect occasion to celebrate the significant contribution of our organisation to a value-based and culture-driven Europe, with the focus on the preservation of cultural and natural heritage in Europe and beyond. We shall also reaffirm our unwavering commitment to champion the vital role of heritage for tackling many challenges that our society and environment are facing today.
