[:en]The kick-off meeting of Erasmus+ project “CUltural administration Boosting with the Engagement of Sustainability for local communities” (CUBES) took place in Lisbon- October 25, 2019.
The successful project launch was held at the premises of Mindshift and gathered representatives from the nine institutions of the consortium (Homo Eminens-HE, MINDSHIFT, Sarajevo Meeting of Culture-SMOC, Xenios Polis, Culture, Science & Action-XPCSA, Center for Social Innovation-CSI, GRIPEN, NGOSC, University of Peloponnese, Department of History, Archaeology and Cultural Resources Management-UOP, Assembly of European Regions-AER) from 7 countries (Lithuania, Portugal, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Greece, Cyprus, Romania, and France)
In fulfilling its objectives, the diverse project consortium consisting of centers for innovation, NGOs, HEIs and enterprises, aims to promote innovative methods and pedagogies by developing digital learning materials and tools that support the effective use of ICTs in adult training, but also to promote new technologies as drivers of improvements in training policies. The project focuses on the value of culture for local communities and the knowledge expansion for stakeholders and target groups concerning the contribution of cultural resources to the local growth. Current cultural, tourism and environmental policies aim at achieving sustainable models of administering the cultural assets, on one hand to ensure the long-term protection of cultural resources, and on the other hand to diffuse the generated economic, sociocultural, and environmental benefits across regions, localities and social sectors.
We congratulate our consortium on the successful launch of the project and look forward to the two-year implementation of CUBES!
