About the webinar

The webinar entitled "Heritage and cultural tourism for Historic Cemeteries: an international Teaching Project" is being organised within the framework of the "Terza missione" project "Whisper: rediscovering cemeteries as cultural sites of the territory" (in Italian "Sottovoce: riscoprire i cimiteri come siti culturali del territorio”) by the University of Turin - Department of Humanistic Studies. You can find the flyer (in Italian) HERE.

The discussion will be based on the experiences of the participants in the first year of the Teaching Project on the theme of the Cultural Routes of the Council of Europe. Hopefully, this will also be an opportunity to enrich the project with new perspectives for the future.
