THE MONASTERY OF YUSTE AND THE MINAS DE ALMADÉN PARQUE MINERO LEAD A PROJECT ON THE INTEGRATION OF EUROPEAN VALUES INTO CULTURAL HERITAGE

The EHL-Bureau allocates €30,000 to the project, which will be used for digital promotion and cooperation between sites recognised with the European Heritage Label.

Cuacos de Yuste, 12th December 2024. The Monastery of San Jerónimo de Yuste and the Minas de Almadén Parque Minero are leading the project “IVEPC – Integrar los valores europeos en el patrimonio cultural”, initiated by Patrimonio Nacional and the European and Ibero-American Academy of Yuste Foundation. It is one of the ten initiatives selected by EHL-Bureau, co-financed by the European Union, to carry out actions promoting cultural values and relationships between sites recognised with the European Heritage Label.

The project “IVEPC – Integrar los valores europeos en el patrimonio cultural”, which will begin in 2025, will include the creation of audiovisual materials and digital media campaigns to bring the Monastery of San Jerónimo de Yuste and the Minas de Almadén Parque Minero closer to all audiences. Additionally, actions for cooperation, interconnection, and joint training for European cultural managers are planned.

The first call for grants awarded by the EHL-Bureau aims to foster collaboration between the various sites recognised with the European Heritage Label, such as the Monastery of Yuste and the Minas de Almadén Parque Minero, promoting activities, synergies, and shared learning. “By fostering collaboration, we are ensuring that our cultural legacy is accessible to all and protected for future generations”, stated Vincent Curie, director of the European Heritage Label Office.

When selecting the projects to receive funding, aspects such as digital innovation, youth participation, sustainability, and the strengthening of the sense of European citizenship were considered, highlighting the commitment to common European values and the creation of a more integrated and collaborative future.
