Call 7 – Croatian Rural Heritage Pilot Partner

We are looking to join a consortium currently being developed for Interreg Euro-MED Call 7 – Sustainable Tourism as a Project Partner / Croatian pilot, uptake and replication partner.

HUAOS can provide a ready-to-implement Croatian pilot environment combining dispersed rural cultural heritage, local communities, cultural programming and sustainable tourism.

Our established programmes include:
Festival of Wooden Chapels – cultural programming across dispersed rural sacred heritage sites;
Zrin Festival – heritage, local identity and community activation in a lesser-known historic rural area;
Like Lika Festival – cultural activation of rural territories and lesser-known destinations.

The Festival of Wooden Chapels could serve as the main pilot, with Zrin Festival and Like Lika Festival providing complementary replication environments.

HUAOS can also contribute expertise in monitoring, evaluation and impact assessment, supporting the assessment of transfer effectiveness, pilot results, uptake and replication potential.

Relevant eligible MMM outputs already identified with particularly strong transfer potential:

MMM_SA10 – Co.Co.Tour
ECO-MUSEUM CROSS BORDER MODEL AND NETWORK

MMM_NX06 – CROSSDEV
Guidelines and local action plans on Cultural Routes

MMM_IS03 – KAŠTellieri
Strategy and action plan for sustainable cultural-tourism destination

MMM_IF13 – QM FESTA
Platform and App QM Festa for Discovering Territories through Festivals and Events

We are also open to other eligible MMM outputs where a Croatian rural cultural-heritage pilot could provide clear added value.

Areas where HUAOS can contribute:

Rural cultural heritage • community-based tourism • cultural and thematic routes • visitor dispersal and management • digital heritage interpretation • sustainable mobility • local stakeholder engagement • cultural events as territorial activation tools • pilot testing and replication • monitoring, evaluation, impact assessment and results uptake

We would particularly like to hear from: Lead Partners, project coordinators and consortia already developing a Call 7 proposal and still looking for a Croatian pilot / uptake territory.

If you see a potential fit with your selected MMM output or emerging consortium, we would be very pleased to discuss possible cooperation promptly.
