LIVIND Opening Webinar

In the opening webinar participants heard more about the LIVIND project and, with case examples from around the Northern Dimension region, about how living heritage and sustainability are linked together. In the workshops different themes of sustainability that were discussed together by sharing experiences with colleagues from the region. More LIVIND events, webinars and workshops, will be held throughout the year 2022!

The events are free and open for everyone. We welcome practitioners of heritage, NGO workers, museum professionals, civil servants, educators, artists, researchers, entrepreneurs, activists and other parties interested! We hope to get together a great group of people working with different domains of living heritage including crafts, performing arts, nature related know-how, oral heritage, festivities, food etc.
