The educational program Creative tourism and storytelling in the function of heritage valorization is aimed at acquiring the key competencies necessary for effective planning and organization of tourist activities that highlight heritage values. Participants will investigate the importance of valorizing heritage values in tourism, with an emphasis on the assessment of the impact of tourism on the preservation and protection of these values. Through lectures and analysis, participants will develop skills for preparing and managing creative projects, solving potentially critical situations, and applying storytelling techniques to deepen the connection between tourists and local cultural heritage.
Practical exercises include the development of thematic offer plans that are aligned with landscape factors, historical-cultural and agricultural elements. Participants will develop creative animation activities related to hiking trails, cycling trails and pilgrimage routes, and will also value ecological resources such as organic products and eco-villages. Through creative storytelling, participants will develop tourism programs that highlight heritage values, allowing visitors to gain a deeper understanding of the culture and traditions of the destination.
Practical work in the development and presentation of these programs ensures the acquisition of skills necessary for the implementation of active and engaging tourism offers. This integrated approach encourages participants to think creatively and innovate in linking tourism with cultural heritage, enabling them to become competent and responsible managers of heritage resources in the context of sustainable tourism.
