Projects

Formation of heritage caretaker groups responsible for raising awareness of and encouraging social engagement with maritime memory and heritage.

Assessment tool linked to the Atlas (A.01.P.03) that encourages reflection on the diversity of maritime heritage (user voting, ratings, comments, and photographic contributions). It will serve as a tool for various purposes including academic research, territorial analysis and urban planning management.

Creation of a support scheme to foster maritime artistic creativity (visual, performing and literary arts, among others) and establish funding guidelines to promote new talent in urban and rural areas.

Creation of a support scheme through non-repayable grants to implement cultural activities: expert talks, maritime culture café-concerts, storytelling sessions in museums about maritime culture-related stories and legends, and open days in artisan workshops and marine industries. These activities could be channelled through the existing network of spaces, such as archives, libraries, and museums.

Promote the organisation of maritime cultural activities in coastal municipalities on 20 May each year, in connection with European Maritime Day (EMD). The EMD is an networking, debate and joint action event for the European maritime community.

Creation of a central archive linked to the Sea Web (A.10.P.27) to support institutions in contributing their materials: A) An audiovisual archive containing a compilation of previous works on oral memory. B) A photographic archive containing historical images related to life stories.

Open and accessible digital repository on the oral history of women of the sea, incorporating photographic and instrumental sources. Creation of a link on the Sea Web (A.10.P.27) and on Galiciana: Digital Library of Galicia.
