About COOLTOUR
“COOLTOUR - Millennials for Cultural Heritage” represents a fresh/ contemporary approach to cultural heritage co-funded by the Erasmus+ Programme of the European Union.
The idea is to promote heritage sites amongst young generations, but also to encourage dialogue and interaction between youth and the professionals managing the heritage sites and to settle a common debate ground between public or private institutions in charge of cultural heritage with young minds interested in new and more participative ways of heritage.
COOLTOUR is an erasmus+ project with with Grant Agreement n°: 2021-1-IT03-KA220-YOU-000029203

COOLTOUR Digital Platform & COOLTOUR Toolkit for Heritage Managers
COOLTOUR digital platform
An innovative digital platform aimed to promote the active involvement of Millennials and collect their inputs for the creation of content and storytelling related to cultural heritage. The COOLTOUR platform is a hybrid social media web application allowing users to create and share content related to the archaeological sites involved in the project, such as reflections on heritage given in vlogs, and blogs, inventing new heritage brands, creating heritage-inspired emoticons, creating routes for “young heritage” as well as heritage presentation from young people’s perspective, so as to strengthen the link between cultural heritage and youth.
Toolkit for Heritage Managers
An innovative methodology aimed at making the managers of archaeological sites understand the importance of using technology in creating a dialogue with the younger generations.
