About us
The transnational project “Culture trAnSforming communiTies and economies” (CAST) aims to transform the rich cultural heritage of the Danube region into a dynamic cornerstone for building resilient communities, exemplifying how culture can drive economic growth and foster greater social inclusion. Project partners from twelve countries in the Danube region will develop a model to support local communities in offering inclusive cultural activities and sustainable tourism products. Through pilot actions, the model will be tested and validated in diverse settings, ensuring its applicability and effectiveness across various cultural landscapes. What makes CAST original is its emphasis on the process of training and capacity building as integral to the model itself, ensuring that communities not only adopt the framework but are equipped to implement it effectively.
