Heritage Activation Through Engaging Experiences Towards Sustainable Development

HERITACT

Description

HeriTACT introduces innovative and inclusive architectural and design solutions as well as cultural-artistic practices to support environmental and cultural sustainability and to strengthen the cultural and creative industries through community awareness and policy-making across European urban areas of different scales and cultural settings. The project’s methodology will leverage place-making in order to enable citizens and organisations to imagine, plan and negotiate the form and use of public spaces and to regenerate urban environments. The innovative methodology and activities proposed aim to achieve the ambitious goals of the New European Bauhaus to connect the European Green Deal to our living spaces and experiences, in a creative and interdisciplinary way. HeriTACT tools and processes to stimulate thinking and go beyond classic ways of problem solving to find more appropriate, tailored and satisfying solutions for the users will be tested in three labs, namely Milan (Italy), Ballina (Ireland) and Elefsina (Greece).
