Our work.
We protect and highlight our traditions and environment
while creating economic opportunities and promoting a sense of community.
while creating economic opportunities and promoting a sense of community.
WHAT: Our Cultural and Natural Heritage is at the core of what we do. Our mission is to keep it alive and to create a better tomorrow by empowering communities and the younger generations, through heritage.
We have adopted three lines of work:
HOW: We believe that the best way to create a better future is by taking small but consistent steps, in a spirit of respect, community and responsible citizenship. We therefore initiate and support grassroot projects and local initiatives, raise awareness and organize workshops and cultural events.
WHO: Maintaining Heritage alive is only possible if done by the groups and individuals who created the knowledge and traditions. We therefore encourage the re-appropriation of Heritage by communities and citizens, through the implementation of shared projects.
