Our goal is to create a best practice example of experiences with digital interactivity as a way to access culture and cultural heritage in rural areas. Various innovative media formats were developed in collaboration with the people who will later use the project results and made permanently available online in all project languages. These templates can be used as motivation and assistance in creating your own digital access to cultural heritage sites. This approach can be used transnationally and transregionally throughout the EU. It thus actively contributes to the democratization of our shared cultural heritage.
The hEDITage project responds to the need to make Europe's identity-forming and unifying cultural heritage accessible to as many people as possible and to reduce or completely remove barriers for people with disabilities. To this end, we are happy to contribute our expertise in the implementation of digital spatial experiences with 360° panoramas for infotainment, documentation, and discovery through innovative digital solutions. We have collaborated with two partners from Spain and Italy who are experienced in adult education and tourism development in disadvantaged rural regions in the EU. A good example of European rural cultural heritage is the presence of wineries in traditional European wine regions such as Spain. Sardinia is home to the ancient Nuragic culture, the Spanish era of pirates, and tuna fishing, which has fed the people of Sardinia for centuries. These are all excellent examples of the possibilities offered by innovative digital formats that inspire people today and enable them to participate.
