LIVIND Final Seminar
What roles does living cultural heritage play in the sustainability transition? How can different forms of living heritage, various traditional knowledge and skills, everyday collective activities, and celebratory expressions contribute to more ecologically, economically, socially, and culturally sustainable development? Come and hear what we have learned in the international LIVIND project in recent years! Coordinated by the Finnish Heritage Agency, this three-year project brought together actors of living cultural heritage from the Nordic and Baltic countries and Poland. The project now culminates in the final event in Helsinki in May.
Webinar: Living heritage and actions for sustainable development
In this webinar, we take a deeper look into sustainable development in the context of living heritage. We will hear viewpoints from the everyday of living heritage safeguarding work with analytical takes on monitoring and indicators and also critical discussion on the roles of culture and cultural heritage in the Agenda 2030 and beyond. For our speakers’ panel discussion, you are welcomed to present questions and share through virtual tools your own viewpoints and experiences.
LIVIND Workshop on Living Heritage and Well-being
In this workshop we focus on the connections between living heritage and well-being. We start from asking, to which extent the possibilities of living heritage for well-being have been recognized in studies on increasing well-being, and what more should be done. We deliver short case examples on how practices of living heritage contribute to health and well-being and, finally, welcome you to interact and discuss this theme with others!
