Description

The project aims to improve the accessibility of cultural heritage across Europe through the exchange and promotion of good practice. The team will develop, implement, and test innovative multidisciplinary educational material for students as future experts, as well as training for existing cultural workers. The project will:

• help museums to have a greater understanding of the needs of visitors with disabilities in order to improve the environment and experience.
• share best practice and build the skills and competences of cultural institutions and students to improve the accessibility of cultural heritage.
• put forward and demonstrate innovative accessibility solutions through pilot projects so that all visitors can fully enjoy cultural heritage.
