The aim of the project is to strengthen the professional
competences of cultural heritage institutions and cultural
professionals by developing and delivering more inclusive and
accessible cultural services for people with disabilities.
The project targets cultural and arts professionals working in
museums and other cultural institutions who are directly
involved in the creation, mediation, and dissemination of
cultural content. Through international cooperation, the project
brings together professionals from different European countries
for structured learning, peer-to-peer exchange, and the
practical application of accessibility solutions in the cultural
sector.
International accessibility-focused learning workshops are
designed as a practice-based format combining expert-led
sessions, case studies, and collaborative creative working
sessions. The main thematic areas include technological
accessibility solutions (such as assistive digital tools and
inclusive communication methods), architectural and spatial
accessibility of cultural heritage sites, and the adaptation of
cultural and educational content for audiences with different
types of disabilities.
Special attention is given to universal design principles,
audience development, and the promotion of equal access to
cultural participation. Project participants are encouraged to
critically assess current institutional practices, identify accessibility barriers, and co-create transferable and scalable
solutions that can be applied across diverse European cultural
contexts.
