On June 20, 2018, the first Dissemination Conference of the CULTURWB project (https://culturwb.pmf.uns.ac.rs) took place at the Cultural Center in Mostar, Rade Bitange 12. Over 60 participants and stakeholders attended the event that was covered by three TV media houses and numerous online newspapers. The Conference covered topics such as CULTURWB project presentation, cultural tourism trends in the EU, presentation of the work of Muzej Hercegovine in Trebinje, reflection of the LLL courses and MA program, and so forth.
The discussion panel during the conference, moderated by dr Dino Mujkic and dr Miroslav Vujicic, allowed plenty of opportunity for the large audience to engage in conversations and share work experiences pertinent to cultural tourism growth in BiH and the Western Balkan region. A lot of focus during the discussion was turned towards the Museum and cultural facilities’ management to continuously seek ways to further contribute to tourism development through culture in the city/region.
In addition, the CULTURWB Network was promoted during the event to all attendees of the Conference and further information about the work of the Network will follow after its official launch in October 2018. All conference attendees/stakeholders expressed an interest to attend the event in Sarajevo in October
