The European Project "European Lived Culture Connects"

The European Cultural Heritage is a unique melting pot of different cultures. "United in diversity" - that is the declared motto of the EU and a guiding principle of this unique community of nations. At the same time this motto bears a task for all Europeans, to create a synergy of cultures, to regard each single culture as a valuable part of the unique community in the context of other cultures. Increasing the awareness of this precious cultural diversity contributes to the development of a shared identity in Europe.

The EliCCon-project want to raise awareness about the rich cultural diversity of europe and its high value for our common life. The focus was on the lived cultural heritage: the values, the traditions, customs and habits. The project partners from the Czech Republic, Germany, Spain and the United Kingdom made photo reportages of interesting examples of the Intangible Cultural Heritage in their country, especially in their region. Also photo reportages from Switzerland were made.

The result was a comprehensive e-book with all photo reports from the project. You can download this unique collection of living cultural heritage free of charge here.
