Empowering Landscapes with Participatory Approaches to Heritage Interpretation Skills.
Putting people at the heart of heritage
EMPATHS (EMpowering landscapes with Participatory Approaches to Heritage
interpretation Skills) is a 30-month Erasmus+ project (Oct 2024 – Mar 2027), coordinated by Interpret Europe.
Its aim is simple but powerful: to transform how we
interpret heritage by involving communities directly in the process.
Too often, heritage professionals lack the tools to facilitate effective participatory
heritage interpretation. EMPATHS tackles this by developing a new blended training
programme that helps professionals co-create heritage stories with local communities
— making them active participants, not just spectators.
The training will be tested through pilot projects in Austria, Italy and Greece and
offered to VET providers as a replicable model.
The ultimate goal? Stronger connections between people and places, and greater
citizen participation in making decisions about cultural and natural heritage.
