WELCOME TO CULTURALITY
The CULTURALITY project aims to promote cultural and creative tourism activities to aid the sustainable development of rural areas, encouraging job creation and population settlement. By researching the cultural heritage, including artisan material culture (techniques, materials, patterns, and decorative elements) and intangible culture (music, oral knowledge, and culinary traditions), the project will foster non-seasonal tourism. It will cater to local communities’ needs, focusing on at-risk groups like women, the elderly, and youth, involving international multidisciplinary teams specializing in digital heritage, research, communication and dissemination. The emphasis will be on constant collaboration and sharing of experiences to enhance collective knowledge and ensure optimal results.
