Practices can be policies, projects, events or organisational structures developed by local and regional authorities.

In particular, practices with the following characteristics are required:

  • that are innovative

Among all the applications received, 30 practices will then be selected for publication and promotion through the EU-funded Cultural Heritage in Action programme.
