19th Forum of Mediterranean Maritime Heritage (AMMM)
The concept of cultural cooperation is very wide, but it basically means to work in collaboration with others in order to share common objectives. This is precisely what the AMMM does: to work jointly and to foster the exchange of experiences between maritime museums, with the aim of carrying out common actions, both plural and participatory, and thus of creating a unique space that connects and links the maritime heritage of different Mediterranean communities.
On this occasion, the forum will focus on cultural cooperation at a European level, with the intention of looking away from national fragmentations and trying to find a thread that join different national projects. As key objective, there is a will to connect territories and unite them better on the basis of shared interests.
One of the objectives that the AMMM has not fully developed yet is the articulation of common projects on cultural tourism excellence, based on offering quality heritage, and aiming at making Mediterranean maritime cultural heritage profitable.
This gathering offers museums the opportunity to deepen on the present situation of European Cooperation, concretely on that related to cultural heritage, and will count with the collaboration of experts specialised in different management areas: funding, cultural and tourism products, such as European Cultural Routes, European programmes and other instruments.
The forum is structured in two parts: the first one will consist of experts’ speeches and good practice examples. The second part is aimed at working in the conception of a future common project. This part will have a workshop format and will be coordinated by professionals with expertise in European projects management of the cultural sector.
