Presentation of regional good practices and information exchange play an essential role in the projects of the Interreg Europe funding program. The Regional Council of Kainuu is involved in the CHERRY project, which develops the role of culture in regional development. In January-February, the project has gathered regional practices from culture and creative fields related to three themes: 1) local development, 2) valorization of cultural and natural heritage, and 3) urban development. The practices of different regions have been discussed at meetings of transnational working groups. From Kainuu, Minna Komulainen and Elina Keränen presented practices related to cultural and natural heritage: Kainuu’s built heritage and cultural environment program, the Singing Heritage Route, and war museums (Raatteen portti and Kuhmo winter war museum). The 9 CHERRY partner areas are different, and they are mainly united by a rich and unique cultural heritage. From Kainuu’s point of view, it is interesting to follow the development activities of the other areas. For example, the support for Italy’s creative industries or the maintenance of UNESCO sites, as well as Belgium’s artistic environmental interventions as part of the regional political discussion, are of interest. We will hear more about other areas when good practices will be compared in more detail. Next up at the end of February is a peer learning trip to Leiedal, Belgium, where the theme is urbanization, digitalization and the green transition in terms of culture and creative industries. #CHERRY #Interreg #InterregEUROPE

🌍 This year, the celebration of European Heritage Days is diving deep into the heart of what makes Europe so enchanting.. our LIVING HERITAGE! Intangible cultural heritage is a treasure that thrives through time, and its preservation is an art in itself. 🎭🎶 To safeguard this precious heritage, we must understand that it's not about freezing it in time but ensuring its relevance and continuity. Here's what we need to keep in mind: 1️⃣ Continual Evolution: Intangible cultural heritage lives and breathes, evolving across generations. 🔄 It's not about preserving specific dances, songs, or crafts, but about passing on knowledge, skills, and meaning. 2️⃣ Transmitting the Essence: The heart of safeguarding is passing on the essence of heritage from one generation to the next. 👥📜 3️⃣ Diverse Circumstances: Safeguarding involves reinforcing the conditions, both tangible and intangible, needed for the heritage's evolution and interpretation. 🌟 🤝 Different from tangible heritage, intangible heritage is closely intertwined with the community's identity and recognition. Only what the community considers its own is safeguarded. 🤲 Safeguarding measures must always respect the community's wishes and customary practices. Public intervention may not always be the answer, as it can alter the heritage's intrinsic value. 🔍 Explore more about the fascinating world of intangible cultural heritage It's a living testament to our creativity, resilience, and the beauty of our cultural diversity. 👉 Check the European Heritage Days 2023 Living Heritage Brochure https://lnkd.in/geAgQvrg 👉 Check the Agenda in your country https://lnkd.in/eBtUqxeU #CulturalHeritage #EuropeanHeritageDays2023

Delighted to see this. Living Heritage (Intangible Cultural Heritage) is an important focus for the UKs Cultural Protection Fund. It is about nurturing, respecting and honouring what over time has shaped contemporary values and societies and learning from that journey to inform possible futures. There is no better starting point for cultural relations than ‘let us understand & work to protect what we both value’. https://lnkd.in/eKN9z_Mx
