We are thrilled to announce the closure event of the “Storytooling” project, which has brought together creativity, innovation, and youth engagement to reshape the narratives around Europe’s post-industrial and rural heritage in these almost past two years.
📅 When: 27 January 2025
📍 Where: CID au Grand-Hornu, Rue Sainte-Louise 82, 7301 Boussu, Belgium
💻 Online: Live translated sessions available in English, Spanish, Portuguese, Arabic, and French.
Over the past two years, the Storytooling project has empowered young people to create innovative cultural and tourism prototypes across Belgium, France, Portugal, Spain, and Tunisia. By integrating diverse narratives into heritage, the initiative has worked to bridge social and territorial divides while fostering economic and cultural development.
What to Expect:
- Presentations of the Storytooling methodology and co-created prototypes.
- Engaging round-table discussions on culture, inclusion, and industrial heritage.
- Participative activities, including exhibitions and interactive sessions at the iconic Grand-Hornu UNESCO site.
This is a unique opportunity to explore how young people have reimagined heritage to enhance territorial attractiveness and foster inclusion. Whether you are a creative professional, heritage enthusiast, or advocate for youth empowerment, this event promises to inspire and inform.

We look forward to welcoming you to this celebration of innovation, creativity, and the future of heritage!
