RURITAGE is a four-year-long EU-funded research project, initiated in June 2018, which aims to sustainably enhance local heritage for regional and community development. The intention is to regenerate rural areas with the help of the Systemic Innovation Areas (SIA) framework which identifies unique heritage potential within rural communities. The selected SIAs include Pilgrimage, Resilience, Sustainable Local Food Production, Integrated Landscape Management, Migration and Art and Festivals.Throughout the RURITAGE project, thirteen rural areas have been selected as Role Models. The Role Models are recognised as prosperous cases that have regenerated with the help of cultural and natural heritage. Prosperous practices of the Role Models are analysed and furthermore transferred to six selected Replicators. There is one Replicator per SIA. These Replicators represent local communities within rural territories that are in the process of building their own heritage-led regeneration strategies, although in need of support to improve their skills, knowledge and capacity building.This project has received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 776465.
