Study Visit – Cantabria

Study Visit – Cantabria

23rd – 25th October, 2019

The aim of the Study Visits is to share and compare the different means of delivering tourism experiences concerned with intangible cultural heritage,and identify good practices in the Atlantic Area.

To this end, five SME study visits are included in the CultureScape workplan coinciding with Steering Committee meetings and the final event.  Host partners demonstrate the best practices operating in their areas of ICH, what their experiences offer and how they interact with the local community.  Partners use these meetings to organise workshops in key topics and distilled their experiences into a set of guiding principles. The duration of these visits is 2-4 days.

In situ visits were agreed to be the most effective way to share and compare the different systems of delivering tourism experiences and identifying good practice. This activity supports the creation of transnational management tools and exchange of know-how among participating regions.

In October the Atlantic CultureScape Steering Committee and some associate project partners visited several locations, businesses and providers linked to intangible cultural heritage in Cantabria.
