“CULTURALITY project is planned with 8 Work Packages for a duration of 48 months with 12 partners from 8 different countries. The project aims to connect traditional and modern material & immaterial practices to attract new audiences and improve sustainable cultural tourism in rural & remote areas. Subsequently, the ideal partnership has been promoted, with academic teams with various research profiles and non-academic partners who are in contact with rural communities and have previous experience organizing activities promoting cultural and creative tourism in remote areas. A well-balanced consortium is built up which includes higher education institutions (Universities), regional representatives from rural & remote areas, museums, organizations working directly with local communities as well as SMEs from the tourism and data mining sectors. Due to the characteristics of the project, which addresses studies of design, anthropology, ethnography, material culture, geography, tourism studies, economics, etc., the partnership has been designed to boost interdisciplinary collaboration, with ethnographers, anthropologists, geographers, economists, designers, experts in social sciences & humanities, promoters of new cultural activities, curators, etc. Indeed, the various objects of study (crafts, intangible heritage, music, design and creative tourism initiatives) require the collaborative work of researchers and professionals from different disciplines, backgrounds and professional experiences.”
