Peer learning visits are an opportunity for groups of experts, decision-makers and stakeholders to discuss first-hand how cities and regions successfully implement cultural heritage policies and projects and how to locally support culture and cultural heritage, based on the experience of the host and the participants.
Participants (around 24 per visit) will discuss challenges and barriers encountered along the way and how they were overcome. The online visits consist of a series of engagements taking place at the same time over 3 to 5 consecutive days (between 1.5 and 2 hours a day, depending on the number of days scheduled for the visit).
During the visits, you will be introduced to the host city local context and successful practices related to culture and cultural heritage. You will get useful information and ideas for improving their existing local projects, initiating new ones or transferring some key elements of the presented practices. Our peer learning methodology is designed to stimulate interaction, collaborative learning and solution-building!
Our visits are part of Cultural Heritage in Action, the European peer-learning programme on cultural heritage for cities and regions. It is funded by the European Union’s Creative Europe programme and it is implemented by a consortium led by Eurocities with KEA, ERRIN, Europa Nostra and Architects’ Council of Europe. Cultural Heritage in Action shall empower cities and regions to strengthen their cultural heritage policies and initiatives as well as develop innovative solutions to preserve cultural heritage assets.
