The GreenHeritage project is delighted to announce the success of its Final Conference, held on October 3rd, 2025, at the Sapienza University of Rome. This pivotal event served as the capstone for our Erasmus+ project, providing a dynamic platform to disseminate key project results, present groundbreaking research, and formulate crucial policy recommendations at the intersection of Intangible Cultural Heritage (ICH) and Climate Change (CC).
During the Conference, some of the project’s main results were illustrated and discussed, such as the innovative methodology to promote, conserve and adapt intangible cultural heritage to climate impacts produced by CMCC; the development of an e-learning platform as a modern educational approach involving innovative and high-quality digital contents; and the production of a transnational and European analysis on the different definitions of intangible cultural heritage and climate change related risks, with the aim of illustrating causal links and probabilities of correlation between the latter and the degradation of intangible cultural heritage caused by climate change.
The Conference not only represented a precious opportunity to share results and lessons learned, but also to deepen the relationship between intangible cultural heritage and climate change, a topic of growing relevance for climate change adaptation and heritage protection policies, which has been analysed through both a scientific and social lens. Participants, both online and in presence, had the chance to discuss new research perspectives, share good practices and lay the foundations for new possible future collaborations, thus creating fertile ground for a more solid, multi-stakeholders exchange and cooperation network at a European level.
