NETwork and digital platform for Cultural Heritage Enhancing and Rebuilding

Project description

Coming together to safeguard our global cultural heritage

Our tangible cultural heritage, comprising buildings, artwork, monuments, traditional clothing and so much more, is invaluable both to the citizens whose cultures it represents and to other cultures seeking to learn, to grow and to enhance their own appreciation and understanding. As eloquently expressed by UNESCO, cultural heritage has historic, symbolic, artistic, aesthetic, ethnological, anthropological, scientific and social significance. The EU-funded NETCHER project is bringing together under one umbrella a broad range of players actively involved in the protection of endangered cultural heritage and in stopping illicit trade. The aim is to begin cataloguing best practices and to build a joint action plan and research and innovation roadmap to protect our cultural heritage.

Objective

The last decades have witnessed a variety of initiatives promoted by a diverse set of actors engaged in the protection of endangered cultural heritage and in stopping illicit trade, initiatives that have tried to bring solutions, remediation, methods and approaches to tackle looting and trafficking.
NETCHER seeks to address the complex challenge of harmonising and bringing together these worthy, but often disconnected initiatives by using a participative approach that will result in the establishment of a structured network (defined as a Social Platform) drawing together a broad range of players such as international bodies, umbrella organizations, national governments, researchers, public policy makers, NGOs, as well as public and private foundations.
In light of the significance of these uncoordinated efforts, the Platform will take charge of the systematizing and framing of all the emerging best practices in order to enhance and capitalize on the experiences of the partnership members at an international level for building a joint action plan with shared toolkits and a research and innovation roadmap.
