The Journey Begins
The working language of the project was English, ensuring accessibility and inclusiveness for participants from various backgrounds. The initial days of the project were marked by the sharing of insights and experiences from the NGOs represented by the participants. This sharing served to establish networks and facilitate mutual learning.
Creative Endeavors and Strategic Thinking
A particularly memorable day involved learning how to “sell ideas” and present them effectively. Participants were tasked with creating their own touristic agency, combining fun, strategic thinking, and cultural heritage. This exercise not only fostered creativity but also emphasized the importance of strategic planning in promoting cultural heritage.
