  5. Through cherishing our cultural heritage, we can discover our diversity and start an inter-cultural conversation about what we have in common.

  6. Why Cultural Heritage?Source: https://europa.eu/cultural-heritage/about_en • Cultural heritage has a universal value for us as individuals, communities and societies. It is important to preserve and pass on to future generations. You may think of heritage as being ‘from the past’ or static, but it actually evolves though our engagement with it. What is more, our heritage has a big role to play in building the future of Europe.

  7. Formsofculturalheritage • tangible – for example buildings, monuments, artefacts, clothing, artwork, books, machines, historic towns, archaeological sites. • intangible – practices, representations, expressions, knowledge, skills - and the associated instruments, objects and cultural spaces - that people value. This includes language and oral traditions, performing arts, social practices and traditional craftsmanship. • natural – landscapes, flora and fauna. • digital – resources that were created in digital form (for example digital art or animation) or that have been digitalised as a way to preserve them (including text, images, video, records).

  8. 2. HERITAGE ESSAY accompanied by a heritage photo & QR code with embedded video / audio file AIM: Raising students’ awareness of heritage value, discovering what heritage is and its importance and promoting an understanding of cultural heritage as our common European inheritance under this year’s motto: Our heritage: Where the past meets the future.
