Culture Action Europe members are invited to join a lunchtime presentation of the MEMEX: MEMories & EXperiences project on Thursday, 17 February 2022, 1-2pm (CET).
Audience engagement and inclusion are two challenges faced by cultural and social organisations. MEMEX is a 3 years European research project (H2020) that promotes social cohesion through collaborative, heritage-related tools, both an app and a methodology, that provide inclusive access to tangible and intangible cultural heritage and, at the same time, facilitate encounters, discussions, and interactions between communities at risk of social or cultural exclusion.
Working hand in hand with socio-cultural organisations in the three pilot cities (Paris, Lisbon and Barcelona), MEMEX partners have developed a storytelling methodology through storytelling workshops and policy recommendations. Focusing on capacity-building actions and project’s impact assessment in the socio-cultural sector, the two policy briefs prepared by MEMEX are aiming to target policymakers from local to European level that can set up coordinated actions responding to actual needs, to ultimately affect political decision-making and programming.
During this lunch encounter, the MEMEX partners will talk about the app, audience engagement, mobilisation, digital storytelling & policy recommendation developed by the project.
