60 years ago, on 29 November 1963, Europa Nostra was founded at the Council of Europe premises in Paris. Starting out with 11 founding members, it has become the largest civil society network dedicated to cultural heritage in Europe. Today, it gives voice to over 300 organisations from across Europe and beyond. At this occasion Europa Nostra produced a series of podcasts presenting its history, current projects and plans for the future.
In this episode you will hear about the present of Europa Nostra.
Audio producer and journalist John Beauchamp from Free Range Productions followed events during the European Heritage Summit in Venice in September 2023 and gathered a mosaic of voices celebrating activities of Europa Nostra across decades. Europa Nostra Heritage Hub in Kraków proudly assisted in production of these audio podcasts.
