On behalf of the TOURAL consortium, we are pleased to invite you to the final event of the EU-funded TOURAL project, bringing together European stakeholders to explore how rural destinations can benefit from cultural heritage while supporting its protection and responsible valorisation.
The question at the heart of the event: How can rural areas be revitalized through cultural heritage valorisation while protecting their heritage, local communities and landscapes?
Drawing on TOURAL’s pilot regions, the programme will share practical experiences and results relating to local cultural heritage assets, sustainable tourism models, heritage-based products, and digital tools for responsible destination management. It will also provide space for exchange on lessons learned, cooperation opportunities and the longer-term uptake of the project’s results.
The event will include an interactive stakeholder discussion, a VR demonstration and networking opportunities. It is open to anyone working on cultural heritage, tourism and rural development, and especially to sister and synergistic EU projects, cultural heritage and tourism organisations, and NGOs, destination management organisations and regional or policy actors, networks working with UNESCO and Europa Nostra.
