Heritage For Future

Conference on sustainable networking and funding of Cultural Heritage in Europe

As the European Year of Cultural Heritage (EYCH) is coming to its end and before the closing ceremony in Vienna on 6th and 7th December, the organizers would like to address the question of sustainable support for cultural heritage in Europe. The Creative Europe programme has been funding numerous Cultural Heritage projects and networks and a special call for the European Year 2018 had been published.

Launched by the Council of Europe in 1987, the Cultural Routes demonstrate, by means of a journey through space and time, how the heritage of the different European countries and cultures contributes to a shared and living cultural heritage. Today 33 Cultural Routes certified by the Council of Europe crisscross the Continent and 32 Countries are members of the Enlarged Partial Agreement on the Cultural Routes.

To highlight the potential European networking and funding as well as the legacy of the European Year of Cultural Heritage, the Creative Europe Desk Culture – Luxembourg and the European Institute of Cultural Routes, together with representatives of the European Commission, the Council of Europe and Europa Nostra, will try to investigate three major topics during the panels:

– Sustainable investment: funding Cultural Heritage in Europe’s regions
– Anticipating needs and issues: towards a sustainable management of Cultural Heritage projects
– How to combine efforts for sustainable support: fostering European synergies

The Secretary General of Europa Nostra, Sneska Quaedvlieg Mihailovic will be speaking at this event.
