The project runs from 2021 to 2023 and is the first project of such coverage in Northern Europe in the field of live heritage.

The PROJECT LIVIND is closely linked to the United Nations “Sustainable Development 2030”, focusing on living heritage and its conservation methods. The project also includes research that will result in an analysis of the situation and recommendations on how to better support future work with cultural heritage. The results of the project will be available to all online platforms.
