In the initial phase, the project laid the foundation for its general framework, knowledge management base, and data infrastructure. This groundwork paved the way for successful advancements in the subsequent period, where non-existing knowledge was generated to assess and monitor risk and resilience in Historic Areas. Additionally, collaborative planning efforts for low carbon resilience in Historic Areas began, with the creation of early-recovery roadmaps for the post-disaster phase. During the second period, the five Open Labs established across Europe continued their co-creation activities despite challenges, providing valuable inputs for validation and replication of results. The Open Labs were further supported by the establishment of a community approach framework, along with almost completed tools for resilience financing and adaptive governance. Exploitation, dissemination, and communication actions were carried out to ensure the project's impact at both global and local levels. In the final period of SHELTER, all planned work has been successfully completed. The data-driven platform was fully developed and optimized for user-friendliness, benefitting from close collaboration with stakeholders and end-users from the Open Labs. The Resilience Dashboard became the central hub for accessing all SHELTER tools, with three additional dashboards dedicated to Social, Chatbot, and Rapid Damage Assessment, Decision Support System (DSS), and Risk Assessment. As a culmination of the project's outcomes, policy recommendations were developed to integrate Cultural Heritage management within existing planning policies, instruments, and tools. A comprehensive step-by-step guide following the SHELTER methodology was created, and a toolkit with 5 tools for planning and implementing resilience financing was made available. Overall, the SHELTER project successfully achieved its objectives and delivered valuable resources to bolster disaster risk management and foster the resilience of Historic Areas.
