The project activities were intended to be impactful in several areas, including the acquisition of new skills, knowledge, and experiences in the promotion and valorization of cultural heritage. The project participants, while working across different countries and sectors, gained a broader perspective on methodologies applied to cultural goods at the European level. As previously stated, there was an expectation of a significant impact on all direct and indirect participants in the event, as the project aimed to produce concrete results in the following areas: - Digital innovation - Territorial promotion - Cultural heritage promotion - Active citizenship promotion in the creative and cultural departments - Involvement of disadvantaged target groups with significant employment needs - Boosting the workforce The project created tangible work opportunities in a sector of significant interest and potential, thanks to the territorial promotion that the European Commission had been implementing over the years by designating the European Capital Cities of Culture. It was certain that most of the NEET (Not in Education, Employment, or Training) young people and many professionals could get benefit of the project.
Tourism played a crucial role in the development of European regions and reduced the negative effects of the economic crisis due to Covid-19. Services and output created for touristic purposes contributed to local development by creating new jobs that compensated for the industrial or local decline and safeguarded and enhanced the natural and cultural heritage in areas like the arts, local gastronomy, and biodiversity conservation. The project was undoubtedly original and aimed to address the specific priority of post-Covid effects outlined by the European Commission: the genuine and effective promotion of cultural heritage combined with the development of an effective employment potential to support young people aspiring to work in the creative tourism sector. This sector was crucial and fundamental for the cities involved (Berlin, Kamnik, Hague, Sivrihisar and Topola). European cultural heritage played a vital role in shaping Europe's future, serving as one of the primary motivations for the project to offer with the project results created.
