ECHOES a transnational Leader –project
What is it?
Often described as a museum without walls, the Ecomuseum concept focuses on local people celebrating their sense of place whilst encouraging participation in enhancing the local quality of life through economic regeneration. It is a dynamic way in which communities preserve, interpret, and manage their heritage whilst allowing for innovation and change for a better future.
Sustainable development is a central tenet of the Ecomuseums movement and it implies that the aim is to increase the value of a place instead of diminishing it. Ecomuseums are now found throughout the world from Japan to Canada to Brazil, with a well-developed network across Europe.
Local communities are at the heart of the Ecomuseum philosophy and the wide range of case studies that are now in existence suggest that scale and focus can vary quite significantly. Ecomuseums are more properly defined by what they do rather than by what they are.
To most people who admire the concept, it is likely to be the sense and uniqueness of ‘place’ and the nature of empowerment of local communities that they see as the drivers of excellence and sustainability. It is a holistic approach to place-based development, with building local networks and partnerships at its heart.
The daily struggle of rural areas includes an aging population, the decline in service provision, young people moving away. There is a strong need to seek out ideas and models that work in the rural context to keep the rural areas alive. Ecomuseum thinking is still relatively new.
Therefore the Echoes- project is looking towards partners in Europe to utilize lessons from the internationally recognized Eco-museum /community heritage /tourism hub approach to build on the community regeneration experience of the partners.
Echoes- project offers a great opportunity for sharing best practices and knowledge transfer, for example in learning how to bridge the gap between the generations; connecting young and old through traditions and local stories and contributing towards a greater appreciation of the area they live in, skills development and creative innovative ideas to use traditions for community enterprise.
