Sustainable cultural tourism - conventional tourism site or industrial and NEB context.

Savonia University of Applied Sciences seeks partners or existing consortia for HORIZON-CL2-2027-01-HERITAGE-06, Future-proofing sustainable cultural tourism. Building on applied research in the Tahko tourism region (Finland), we propose a living-lab approach to co-create low-carbon cultural tourism, sustainable mobility and green logistics solutions across Europe (eg. Finland, Malta, Germany, Austria and Poland, others). As another option, the project could focus on cultural tourism in an Industrial and NEB context. The project will integrate visitor-flow data, multimodal accessibility, circular service logistics, SME innovation and regional policy learning to strengthen resilience, inclusiveness and heritage value. We are interested in tourism networks, mobility/logistics companies, cultural heritage sites, digital solution providers, universities, regional authorities and policy actors committed to scalable, evidence-based transition pathways and measurable impact for Europe
