The Creative Mountains project team invites you to explore successful experience in promotion of rural areas and discuss cooperation for future international projects!
The project "Creative mountains" was shortlisted for the Mountain Innovation Award in 2023 for its innovative approaches to promotion of cultural heritage in the remote mountain areas of Slovakia, Georgia and Armenia. Thanks to professional videos, photos and attractive texts shared by bloggers and photographers in social media and websites about 3 million people around the world got the chance to learn about unique nature and folk culture in the mountains and how this is being preserved and revitalized by local stakeholders.
The project was co-funded by the Creative Europe programme of the EU. Among other priorities, this programme supports cooperation between the Culture, Nature Conservation and Rural Development Sectors. During the webinar, we plan to present Creative Europe programme and new ideas for international cooperation.

- Svetlana Belova, director of Association for nature conservation "Machaon International" (Slovakia)
- Natalia Kolesnikova, brand identity art-director, specialist in sustainable branding
- Narek Grigoryan, Head of NABU branch in Armenia
