DIGITAL COLLECTION
The #ASenseofEU Digital Collection is a collaborative European repository of intangible cultural heritage, bringing together stories, images and videos created by local communities across partner countries.
The collection is organised through thematic tags reflecting different dimensions of ‘Sense of Place’.
The Digital Collection aims to give voice to local communities by highlighting their unique cultural expressions, memories, and traditions. Through this shared space, participants become active contributors, helping to preserve and promote Europe’s diverse intangible heritage while strengthening a collective sense of identity and belonging
